This is an interesting story about how a Linux Beowulf cluster make it
much easier for a researcher to do supercomputer work in order to
simulate ways of hearts failing, helping to understand heart diseases
and hopefully find new treatments in the future.

It starts with an explanation of certain types of heart failure, going
into supercomputer modeling of heart cells, and the tremendous cost
savings of Linux Beowulf supercomputer clusters.
