Steps to Make a Raspberry pi Supercomputer and it’s Latest Applications

May 3, 2014 by Tarun Agarwal 7 Comments

Raspberry Pi Supercomputer

Raspberry Pi Supercomputer

A Raspberry Pi is an inexpensive, single-chip computer of credit card size, which has the capabilities of the processors that are used is in running the Linux and other operating systems. It is similar to the processors that are used in smart phones. Raspberry Pi functions as a regular desktop computer when it is connected to the keyboard or monitor. Raspberry is very cheap and most reliable to make a Raspberry Pi supercomputer.

A Raspberry Pi supercomputer is built by using 64-Raspberry Pi computers and Lego bricks. Raspberry Pi programming is done by using free computer programming software such as Python and Scratch. The super computer is also named as Iridis- Pi, which runs off a single 13 Amp mains socket and uses MPI (Message Passing Interface) Protocol to communicate between nodes in parallel computers using Ethernet. It consists of totally 64 processors with 16 GB SD cards for each Raspberry Pi, and the Python tools in visual studio are used for developing a code in Raspberry Pi.

A Beowulf cluster is a set of computers that are networked together for task processing problems by Onyx lab which is not much useful. Furthermore, the Beowulf cluster is developed by using RPI clusters with some unique features for controlling a simple hardware, which is most useful and is of low cost in designing. The RPI platform is one of the cheapest ways to make RPI clusters of 32 nodes of Raspberry Pi that are used for making a Raspberry Pi supercomputer and its task is easy for simulation purpose.

Steps to make a Raspberry Pi SuperComputer

1. Onyx cluster has been gaining excellent rating for many years, but it has gone down due to many reasons and this cluster was unavailable during the time of the project. However, this requirement was overcome by the RPI cluster, which can be used for developing the projects that make use of a message passing interface or Java for making cluster.

2. RPI provides unique features that can be interfaced with the external low level embedded systems such as I2C, UART and SPI. This is most helpful for the electrical students doing testing on embedded systems in large scale industries.

3. The cluster needs to be installed with the necessary tools, and the user must have access to get the works done by the administrator.

4. Raspberry Pi processors are held in a place together with the support of Legos bricks to create the parallel computer, and are programmed by using Python software. Every Single Raspberry Pi is connected by 100 MB Ethernet bit and is powered by graphic chips.

5. Finally, RPis are cheap. The RPi platform is one of the cheapest ways to create a cluster of 32 nodes. The cost of an RPi with an 8GB SD card is quite equal to the price of one PC-based node, which can be used to create a 32 node Raspberry Pi Supercomputer cluster.
