Too fast a read. Wanted a structured walkthrough. Maybe I could have given myself one.


For example, you might have pointed out where the simulation was happening, even though I didn't have multiple processors yet. Until I buy, I might like to make believe and predict what a strategy would afford me, much as in your trading software!


You mention rumored mp cards, I note music production cards have auxilliary processors. I suspect that PCI-X might have that 64 bit wide bus to something with an external fan.


I am intrigued that you are a quantum chemist with graphic software VTK thinking and yet also in market modeling. I thought such creatures alien to each other, a generation gap I have with my aged mother.


Perhaps there is chaos in your strategies of prediction?

    I didn't go to into much detail in this article, but the code is all there, and you can see how it works. I wanted to concentrate on the design aspects, the interfaces.

    The G5 does make this article a bit more relevant. It would be great if Apple could make some inroads in scitech with G5 XServe clusters.

    About the quantum chemistry/market modelling question. I fit the old phrase "Jack of all trades, master of none" a little too well. I get interested and involved in a lot of different stuff, and I am mediocre at all of it ;-)
