U C Berkeley Millennium Project Millennium is a
U. C. Berkeley Millennium Project Millennium is a large experimental test-bed constructed as a inter-campus “cluster of clusters” Applications / Services (ISPACE/Kiosks) PBS I/ O MPI VEXEC TOOLS REXEC - VIA / GM, Gb. E - Multicast Mgmt / Monitor to enable research in Computer Science and in Computational Science and Engineering. It recognizes that simulation and modeling is not only becoming the third pillar of science, but that physical simulation and information processing have increasing commonality. Researchers in a dozen departments are participating in this inter-disciplinary experiment of a distributed cluster providing services as a computational economy.
