Open Source Cygwin Distributed Computing Software

Moscrack is a perl application designed to facilitate cracking WPA keys on a cluster of computers. This is accomplished with any one of Mosix clustering software, ssh, rsh or Pyrit connectivity to nodes. Cluster nodes can run any Un*x variant (includ

NXLogin aims to be a simple glue program for Windows machines that automates nxproxy and nxagent setup using Cygwin tools. It uses SSH to connect to a remote UNIX host, invokes nxagent there, and invokes nxproxy locally. It can also start up a local X server. NX traffic is tunneled through SSH.

RainforestCluster is an Amazon EC2 python program that manages and load-balances dynamic clusters to allow for maximum workflow flexibility and speed at minimal cost. It enables one to quickly and cheaply create dynamic compute clusters in the cloud, which can then run computational pipelines generically. It is also able to optimize the use of spot instances - idle computers in Amazon's cloud that are available at drastically reduced cost (5x-10x cheaper) - but can be terminated at any moment if capacity drops or the bid price rises. It also provides pre-installed features such as GlusterFS distributed filesystems, ThunderstormDistributor queuing system, RAID 0 /scratch, password-less ssh, and automatic cluster management, for ease of use and maximum processing speed for computational tools. Originally it was developed as a different version for the Wall Lab at Harvard CBMI.
