Subversion is a Free/Open-source Version Control System (VCS). That is, Subversion manages files and directories, and the changes made to them, over time. This allows you to recover older versions of your data or examine the history of how your data changed. It can operate across networks, which allows it to be used by people on different computers.
In this tutorial, we aim at installing Subversion on a Linux Ubuntu system and configuring it to run across a network using an Apache Web Server configuration. Continue reading
In a previous post, we have detailed how to install OpenMPI on a Mac OS X system. At that time, it seemed alot easier to setup the OpenMPI implementation on a Mac system, rather that MPICH.
In this post, we will try to describe how to setup MPICH on a Linux system.
First, if not done yet, please consider installing the libc-dev package, which contains headers for developers from the Linux kernel: Continue reading
