The process is relatively simple:
- Install Linux (in this case Fedora 8)
- Set up Message Passing Interface and Cell SDK
- Start number crunching
Of course I have left out all details from steps 1 and 2 but this should not be very difficult.
The resources page may be visited quite often especially if you are not familiar with Cell chip and graphics side of PS3.
Comment from a Professor Gaurav Khanna from UMASS about PS3:
For the same cost, you can build your own supercomputer and it works just as well if not better. Plus, you can use it over and over again, indefinitely.
So, don't turn off your PS3 yet!
