R: HPC with Beoqulf

I suppose  you refer beowulf means you refer a trasparent distributed processes 
managment system.

Any Linux distribution supporting beowulf can be the point of a good start to 
build a Linux based HPC cluster.

In order to build a performante architecture solution to HPC cluster, the best 
strategy is to elaborate a combined 

solution using high fast interconnection system and a reliable cluster 
resource management systems: beowulf  is 

only a distributed processes managment system. 

Beowulf is not a High Availability  HPC system, is not a high network 
interconnect system, is not  a is not a Cluster 

Management system, is not a File system managment, is not a scheduling of 
parallel programs, is not a inter 

processor communication.

You can start from beowulf software and add code to reach the above 
functionalities.
