Abstract

HEP Cluster is designed and implemented in Scientific Linux Cern 5.5 to grant High Energy Physics researchers one place where they can go to undertake a particular task or to provide a parallel processing architecture in which CPU resources are shared across a network and all machines function as one large supercomputer. It gives physicists a facility to access computers and data, transparently, without having to consider location, operating system, account administration, and other details. By using this facility researchers can process their jobs much faster than the stand alone desktop systems. Keywords: Cluster, Network, Storage, Parallel Computing & Gris.
