Also don't miss Condor, PBS, and Gridengine. They are
the enabling technologies for distributed/parallel
applications.

> Sir,
> I am interested in the area of Distibuted/
> Parallel/High performnace computing, as a part of
> my
> study I am preparing a list of applications that can
> utilise distributed computing power.
> I made a small list by searching on the internet,
> there are much more applications yet to added. I
> request you to provide pointers for latest
> applications and the applictaions I missed.
> I also request you to provide pointers for
> applications specific to Beowulf clusters
>
> Here is the list:
>
> (They are not properly organised)
>
> 1) Visualization, image processing, rendering,
> special
> effects
> Parallel ray-tracing
> University of Bristol (Computer Graphics group)
> http://www.cs.bris.ac.uk/research/graphics
> Kwangu Institute of Science & technology
> (Information
> System group)

> 3)Goggle ?Web Search Engine with Linux cluster
> (more
> than 10,000 servers).
>
> 4) High Performance, High availability web servers
> eddieware, khttpd(Static pages)
>
> 5)Computing in Computational fluid dynamics

> 7)Folding at Home:
> An effort to understand protein folding and
> aggregation for use toward fighting degenerative
> diseases.

>
> 8)Find-a-Drug: http://www.find-a-drug.org/
> Evaluates the potential of different molecules to
> interact with certain protein targets. Molecules
> that
> are found to be "hits" can become new drug
> candidates
> used for treating important diseases.

> 9) GIMPS: The Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search:
> http://www.mersenne.org
> Searches for record-size Mersenne prime numbers.
> Discovered the 39th known Mersenne prime number,
> 2^13,466,917 - 1 on November 14, 2001.
>
> 10)Distributed Search for Fermat Number Divisors:
> http://www.fermatsearch.org/
> Searches for additional divisors of Fermat
> numbers.
> Found 7 new divisorsin 2003.
>
> 1) Brute force attacks on cryptographic keys
> Cracking RC4, RC5, DES
> Cracking Passwords
