beowulf by Erpo · 2002-09-23 12:14 · Score: 0, Offtopic

Beowulf, a fictional Scandanavian warrior from the sixth century, is the subject of the oldest known english epic poem. Read it here . Naturally (?), geeks working on clustering computers together to combine their number crunching power decided to name their work after it. I think this may have to do with Beowulf having the combined strength of 50 men.

I don't understand how you could have trouble figuring this out. The FIRST link that came up when I did a search for Beowulf on google explaned what beowulf means in a clustering context. Elsewhere on the FIRST page there was a link to the translation I linked above. Learn to use google.
