Construction of a high‐performance computing cluster: A curriculum for engineering and science students
Ming‐Huei Chen, T. L. Li · Computer Applications in Engineering Education · 2009
Abstract In this article, a curriculum on the construction and maintenance of a high‐performance computing cluster for students in engineering and science is presented. Laboratory sessions are an important part of this curriculum. Successive completion of the laboratory sessions automatically leads the student group to a homemade full‐functioned cluster. Students are encouraged as they see their computing cluster working at the end of the curriculum. This curriculum can be of benefit to the students who are involved with computationally intensive simulations. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Comput Appl Eng Educ 19: 678–684, 2011
