Cactus 4.0 beta 2.0 is released after First Cactus Workshop. The first Cactus Workshop, held in Champaign-Urbana jointly by the NCSA and the AEI, was a great success. There were 66 registered attendees of which 25 were speakers, the workshop covering parallel computing, an introduction to the Cactus Code, an overview of the software and hardware technology that can be accessed through Cactus, and Numerical Relativity with Cactus.
The workshop was webcasted (RealVideo/Audio) by NCSA. We would like to thank everyone who came along and helped make it such a fun and interesting week! - July 31, 1999
Cactus 4.0 beta is released. After some delays (we promised this would be done in January of 1998 ;-) the first release to the general public is ready for beta testing. The flesh is complete! Many thorns are available and we hope that it even works most of the time ;-)
Follow the instructions in our download section to get your own copy! And please send us feedback or bug reports. - July 23, 1999
Alliance Roadrunner Supercluster Now on the Grid: Roadrunner Supercluster used Cactus benchmarking in scaling. - July 13, 1999
NCSA and AEI Offer Intro to Parallel Computing and Cactus Workshop : Two consecutive workshops are planned for this fall at NCSA, focusing on Parallel Computing and using Cactus, a framework for solving partial differential equations (PDEs) on parallel architectures and used extensively for 3D numerical relativity and astrophysics problems. - July 4, 1999
Record breaking computations at NCSA: Cactus was used in recordbreaking calculations performed on a 256 processor Origin at NCSA. Total computation time exceeded 100,000 CPU hours in one month. - July 1, 1999
Cactus 4.0 alpha is released as an internal version for close collaborators. A major redesign of all components of Cactus requires retesting before the public release. - June 1999
Cactus featured in NPACI EnVision : An article about Globus in the April-June edition of the NPACI magazine EnVision contained details about the Cactus Code. - April 1999
Cactus and the Year 2000 : Please note that all releases of Cactus are Year 2000 compliant! Do not expect any unusual problems (related with cactus ;-) on January 1st 2000.
