What is NetSolve?
-----------------
  The NetSolve project is being developed at the University of
  Tennessee's Computer Science Department. It provides remote
  access to computational resources, both hardware and software.
  It is built upon standard Internet protocols, like TCP/IP sockets.

  The NetSolve system is comprised of a set of loosely connected
  machines. By loosely connected, we mean that these machines are
  on the same local, wide or global area network, and may be
  administrated by different institutions and organizations.
  Moreover, the NetSolve system is able to support these
  interactions in a heterogeneous environment, i.e. machines of
  different architectures, operating systems and internal data
  representations can participate in the system at the same time.

On What Platforms does it Run?
-----------------------------
  NetSolve has been developed on Solaris 5.5.1 and Redhat Linux
  6.2 (kernel 2.2). It has been tested on:

 #==========================================================================#

  We believe that with minor tweaks (or none at all), it should work on almost
  any UNIX-based operating system. The NetSolve client is also available
  for Windows '95, '98, '00 and NT platforms.
