I would be interested in manuals or papers on this subject as well.

Plan9 is well suited to distributed computing with its per process namespaces and network transparent resource access. Do grid computing projects built on plan9 use the built-in OS facilities such as cpu and 9p or do they generally favour custom protocols and for what reasons?

Cheers,
Chris

Heya folks,

Can anyone point me in the right direction of some manuals concerning the use of a beowulf cluster style of computing setup, i'm so used to MPI installs and limiting myself to terminals that being what it seems ooout-f-he-box this already is setup with parallel computing in mind..

Also some examples would be great of common current usages of such.
