Dear IDL'ers, I'm a new IDL user and I've got some image reconstruction tasks that are done on a slice-by-slice basis. I think that this will make it simple for me to run IDL programs on several different machines, each doing a subset of the slices, so that overall processing time will be reduced. I've got a stack of Linux PCs and some shiny new windows 2000 PCs to do this on. These windows machines run at 1.8 GHz and I'd like to take advantage of all the wasted cycles that aren't needed when the users are doing their email and text processing. Does anyone out there have any experience or suggestions on ways to implement this? I can work it out with scripts on the linux boxes, but I'm at a loss for how to do it with the windows machines. Is it even possible to work them into the mix? (without turning them into Linux boxes that is...) Mike -- Michael A.
