Abstract :
A parallel 2d3v PIC-MCC (particle-in-cell plasma simulations and Monte Carlo collisions) code is developed with message passing language PVM to simulate the electron cyclotron resonance plasma source in this research. This code has been run on a PC cluster with a cluster system we developed called "diskless remote boot in Linux (DRBL)", which is a centralized boot and management environment. By using DRBL, it\´s easier for us to integrate some PCs to a cluster system. Once we have some computing power, with the grid technology, we can harvest more by sharing the computing resources with others. This is a new approach to harvest more computing power. With the PIC-MCC simulation of ECR plasma source, the results and benchmark for different cluster architectures arc given and discussed.
