Tim Mattox (back to camera) explains the Flat Neighborhood Network
(FNN) connection strategy he and Hank Dietz designed and implemented
for the Comparative Planetology Linux Engine (COMPLINE), a 40-node PC
cluster that achieves 33.9 Gflops on the HPL 64-bit benchmark at a
total cost of $25,031.84, or 74 cents per Mflop. Looking on, from
