How to parallelize jobs?
If you want to run your single-processor program/algorithm many times, a supercomputer will be helpful, because you will be able to run your program on several processors at the same time.
On the other side, if you want your program to run really fast on a supercomputer, you must reprogram it to utilize several processors in the same run.
The main programming tool to construct parallel programs is to use message passing libraries, like PVM and MPI.
