The computing surface which was used for this project is the Computer Applications Linux Cluster. This cluster has 23 nodes, each being containing a Pentium Pro 180mhz machine with 64 Megabytes of RAM. Each node is running Debian GNU/Linux. This cluster is a "Beowulf" cluster, which means that one of the machines is the head node, and all the other nodes simply compute jobs given to them and send back results. The network used is a 100 megabit Ethernet. This cluster was built purely as a proof of concept; the machines and network are too old and slow to be used in any serious way for scientific computing.
