Using Engineering a Beowulf-style Compute Cluster as a guide and reference
Although the text is nearly old enough as your average freshman, it retains its value by its simplicity, its breadth, and coherency (mostly).
- Simple -> Refers to himself as a "Sears" Computer Scientist
- Breadth -> Covers theory to (eventually) rewiring your house
- Coherency -> Between the extreme ends of his content, there aren't any appreciable gaps
Why do any of this?
- You have calculations to do and not enough time to do them
- Jensen Huang has an insatiable appetite for your money.
