SEM (Supercomputing Engine for Mathematica), a new application package for gridMathematica and Mathematica Personal Grid Edition, is now available. Key Features * Supports MPI specification * Runs Mathematica symbolic manipulation across a cluster, as cluster computing handles more than numerics * Drastically reduces execution time for Mathematica algorithms (up to 8 times faster on a single 8-CPU mode and up to 32 times faster on a cluster of four 8-CPU nodes) * Maximizes resource utilization in multi-CPU machines * Performs symbolic manipulations across a cluster * Employs a distributed memory model for using the RAM of the entire cluster to run memory-consuming applications Developed by Advanced Cluster Systems, LLC, and Dauger Research, Inc., SEM requires gridMathematica 2.2 or Mathematica Personal Grid Edition 6 and is available for Mac OS X 10.4.11 and up.
