HPC4U Open Source Version Released
,----[ Quote ]
| HPC4U's freeware version uses a coLinux system. It is a virtualisation
| which, in contrast to other systems such as VMware, does not emulate
| an entire machine but allows running the Linux kernel as an MS Windows
| service. Using coLinux makes it easier to run since the operating
| system is booted from a CD-Rom or a DVD device without any previous
| installation on the computer disk. This coLinux based system uses CCS
| and two free and open source components offering basic fault tolerance
| mechanisms for parallel applications. These components are respectively
| BLCR (Berkeley Lab Checkpoint/Restart) and LAM-MPI.
