Ara Howard has done a lot of parallel programming with Ruby using a syste= m
that he devised.
I think it's okay to mention that the 10th is the target release date for
Ruby Code & Style, an ezine published by Artima, and that one of the
articles in the first issues was written by Ara Howard about the central
piece in his distributed computing system, rubyqueue. I've read the
article, and it is really a superb piece of writing. I'd recommend readi= ng
it when the zine comes out next week, for sure.
we do loose parallelization here at ngdc using my rq package
http://raa.ruby-lang.org/project/rq/
it's a doesn't parrallelize any of your code itself - but it provides a sim=
ple
method of setting up a linux cluster in literally minutes. this make
parallel tasks easier to tackle since the effort can be spent writing that
code and not babysitting the cluster. what kind of parralel tasks are you
planning on doing? how will you distribute them? you may also be interest=
