I don't suppose anyone has played with Octave-MPI? [http://corto.icg.to.infn.it/andy/octave-mpi/] For people who don't know anything about what I'm talking about, Octave is a Matlab-like program that lets you do mathematical modeling, etc. Octave-MPI is a parallelized version that uses the LAM/MPI message-passing interface to allow processing to be distributed across CPUs and across the network. I'm still playing with it.. If anyone else has done stuff with it, and perhaps has some more examples of how to use it than the two on that web page, I'd be really interested.. -- _ _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ ___ _ _ __ "Every time I've built / \/ \(_)| ' // ._\ / - \(_)/ ./| ' /(__ character, I've \_||_/|_||_|_\\___/ \_-_/|_|\__\|_|_\ __) regretted it."
