Cluster Computing Groups and Fora

Organizations

• IEEE Cluster Computing Task Force is a group formed in 1999 to "promote all aspects of cluster computing." Conferences held annually.
• Open Cluster Group is "an informal consortium of commercial and research organizations involved with cluster-computing." First project is the OSCAR software suite a group formed in 2000 to "promote all aspects of cluster computing." Conferences held annually.

Discussion Groups

• The Beowulf mailing list is the granddaddy of them all. A full archive and information list can be accessed at the main Beowulf website: http://www.beowulf.org/
• http://clusters.top500.org/ is a link to "FreshMeat" style news and information page.
• ALICE (for Advanced Large-Scale Integrated Computational Environment) at Argonne appears to be relevant work, but may be a closed collaboration. Someone needs to knock on this door...
