I am writing Cocoa front end to scientific software. All calculations
are in C tools run as NSTasks with standard output and error piped back
to the Cocoa application.
It all works fine, but it would be ideal to network many processes and
have the Cocoa front end send multiple NSTasks to different processers
to do simultaneous, but separate calculations. The Cocoa app on my Mac
would manage it all.
I am trying to find out if is is possible. I found NSHost which seems
it can link to another processer, but I could not find anything in
NSTask to tell it to run on a different processer or NSHost? Is it
possible? How is it done? Does the exectuable C tool have to reside on
the host or can the copy on my mac be launched on any networked
processor?
