Chapter 7

Networking and Remote Access

Abstract

This chapter describes networking in some detail, with special attention to remote simulation and access. Remote simulation has high and frequent use in high-performance computing (HPC) and it is the beauty of HPC that you can access your work from anywhere in the world. The concept of networking with transmission control protocol/Internet protocol is also discussed and presented in a simplified manner that should help a computational flow dynamics engineer to work well when dealing with cluster issues.
