Project overview
For this project, you will perform the following steps:
- You will initially configure a Pi2 or Pi3 (one-node), four-core supercomputer.
- You will then command (using OpenMPI) all four cores to simultaneously solve the simple
 equations discussed previously. - You will then proceed to assemble a two-node Pi2 or Pi3, 8-core supercomputer, which you will configure to operate in parallel with each other, and again, run said  programs using all eight cores.
- Finally, you will construct an eight-node Pi2 or Pi3, 32- or 64-core supercomputer, which you will then command to rapidly crunch and smash through substantial equations (see equations in the
Appendix
). Some of these equations require as few as two iterations, while others require hundreds or thousands, and millions of iterations to produce an excellent approximate  value. You will, indeed, be delighted at observing the gradual reduction in processing time, as you successively bring online increasing numbers of cores...
