gridMathematica 7: Multiplying the Power of Mathematica over the Grid

[news...@wolfram.com]

Less than six months ago, Wolfram Research integrated
automatic parallel technology into Mathematica 7. Today, that
power can be multiplied by more powerful hardware and clusters
with the release of gridMathematica 7, including new
technology, Wolfram Lightweight Grid Manager, for launching
Mathematica
on remote computers.

gridMathematica extends the built-in parallelization features of
Mathematica by adding extra computation kernels and automated
network distribution tools--allowing users to run more tasks in
parallel, over more CPUs, for faster execution without changing a
line of code.

gridMathematica's new extension technology makes parallel tasks,
even personal supercomputing, easy. Whether computations are
distributed over local or remote CPUs, process coordination and
management is completely automated.
* gridMathematica Local adds four additional computation kernels
to the four already included in a single-machine Mathematica
license, making it ideal for individual user who needs a boost of
power on a multicore machine.
* gridMathematica Server provides a network-managed pool of
computation kernels that can be shared by a group of Mathematica
users locally or run on remote hardware to combine the power of
multiple computers.
* Wolfram Lightweight Grid Manager makes it easy for users to
acquire and run Mathematica computation kernels on remote
hardware and can control high-performance clusters or create ad
hoc grids from idle computers.

Using gridMathematica 7, you can automatically scale up your
tasks to grids of any size--allowing you to deliver accurate
solutions even faster.

gridMathematica requires a Mathematica license and is available
for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux.
