While these storage architectures have served the enterprise computing market well over the years, cluster computing represents a new class of storage system interaction--one requiring high concurrency (thousands of compute nodes) and high aggregate I/O.

In response to the IRS's challenge of its use of the Black Motor formula to compute its bad debt for the years at issue as contrary to the regulations, the taxpayer asserted that the latter method was contrary to statutory intent and that the former method produced a more accurate reflection of its experience.

(33) The "month-day" method (which is described below) was employed to compute such interest.

In reviving Van Vleck's semiclassical formula, Heller and his colleague Steven Tomsovic modified the method slightly to make it easier to compute the required map.

This means large companies must compute ACE for estimated tax purposes for the second installment (due June 15, 1990, for calendar-year companies).

This scattering and gathering of data partitions is time consuming and susceptible to program errors or compute node failures, making the overall process difficult to manage.

Taxpayers electing the IPIC method can now use 100% of the pool index--now called the inventory price index (IPI)--to compute the LIFO value of a dollar-value pool.

"Compute but verify" is the strategy at the core of a remarkable new method for calculating pi ([pi])--the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter.

The advent of Linux compute clusters has forever changed the high-performance computing landscape.

"A reasonable question is, why doesone compute pi and not compute something else to 134 million digits?' says Borwein.

Virtualization significantly decreases up-front capital expense, as well as long-run operational expense, because there are simply fewer boxes to buy and manage, and compute resources can be managed as a consolidated pool, rather than on a box-by-box basis.

First, the S corporation must compute its "regular tax liability." Regs.

The scalability of the AMD Opteron processor Model 846 brings investment protection and flexibility to enterprises and high-performance compute centers requiring high-performance on 32- and 64-bit applications.
