Little-Fe - The Low-cost Portable Cluster for Computational Science Education

Many institutions still do not have access to high performance computing platforms for computational science demonstrations and laboratories. Little-Fe is a complete 8 node Beowulf style portable computational cluster that sets-up in 10 minutes. By leveraging the power of the Bootable Cluster CD project, and its associated curriculum modules, Little-Fe makes it possible to have a powerful educational platform for use in a variety of science disciplines for under $2,500. This poster describes Little-Fe's hardware and software configuration including plans for a "do it yourself" version.
