OpenMosix Conference Delves Into Clustering

Posted by timothy on from the like-honeybees dept.

axehind writes "There's a article on Newsforge about the conference titled "Linux Cluster: the openMosix Approach" that took place in Italy on Nov 28th. It's really interesting to see what openMosix clusters have been used for. From game clusters to scientific research . It includes links to the conferences slides and some of the papers."

  2. Linux WMP? by 4of12 · · Score: 2

    The link to the slides includes a nifty detection script that informs me that I don't have Windows Media Player installed as one of the plugins for Mozilla.

    Where do I get a free implementation of WMP for Linux?

  3. No talk of migratable sockets in OpenMOSIX? by truth_revealed · · Score: 2

    One of the slides talked about migrating processes with threads and their plans to have distributed memory support in by summer 2003, but to my surprise there was no talk about migrating processes with open sockets (without dropping the connections of course). Is this a low priority for OpenMOSIX?
