Distributed Mathematica - User and Reference Manual

Abstract

Distributed Mathematica is a system for writing parallel programs in the integrated system for technical computing Mathematica. It allows to create concurrent tasks and have them executed by Mathematica kernels running on different machines of a network. The system consists of two components:

1. A Java class library which implements a general purpose communication and scheduling mechanism for distributed applications.
2. A binding that allows to access the Java scheduler from Mathematica and implements a parallel programming model on top.

The system can be freely downloaded from:
