“Linux NetworX, Inc., a provider of large-scale clustered
computer solutions for Internet, industry and research fields,
today announced the opening of its Houston office. The office is
strategically located to meet the increasing demand for high
performance cluster computing from the oil and gas industry.”
“The oil and gas industry is experiencing a shift from using
supercomputers to using Linux clustered systems for high
performance computation and seismic imaging applications,” said
Clark Roundy, vice president of Linux NetworX. “The Houston office
reflects our commitment to the industry.”
“The oil and gas industry is one of the largest markets for high
performance computing. Linux NetworX’s clustered systems are ideal
for processing the massive amounts of seismic data for
approximately one-tenth the cost of traditional
supercomputers.”
