You can now direct the front end to use the remote kernel. Once you have finished entering this information, click OK to close both kernel configuration windows: (In this example, the full path is not necessary because the remote kernel is on a Linux machine where a symbolic link to the kernel program 'math' is in the search path.) In the Kernel Program field, give the command that would be used to run the Wolfram System through a terminal window on the remote machine.

In the Remote Login field ( Remote User in Mac OS X), specify the user that you will log in as.In the Machine Name field ( Remote Host on Mac OS X), enter either the name of the remote machine on your network or its IP address.In Basic Options, select the Remote Machine radio button.In the Kernel Name field, give your new kernel an appropriate name.The Kernel Properties window now appears, which lets you configure your new kernel. In the window that appears, click Add to create a new kernel profile.

The Wolfram System can automate the running of remote kernels.īegin setting up the remote kernel by selecting Evaluation ▶ Kernel Configuration Options: Using a remote kernel to perform your computations is very convenient if your computer has limited hardware resources or is being used for other tasks. The front end is what you see on your screen (graphics, text, and display of your computations), while the kernel takes care of almost everything else, including the vast majority of computations. The Wolfram System can be thought of as two distinct parts, a kernel and a front end.
