MandelNet is a package that lets you compute Mandelbrot fractals using the combined computing power of several Macintoshes on a AppleTalk network. Of course it may be used on single machines too, but it was especially designed for network use. It also takes advantage of several System 7 features like Apple Events or Balloon Help and thus won’t run with earlier systems.
Concept
The MandelNet package consists of two applications, ‘MandelNet Master’ and ‘MandelNet Slave’. The Master is a perfectly normal application - you use it to create, open, save and manipulate documents. The real calculations however are performed by the Slave. You may connect any number of Slaves to a Master, thus increasing it’s calculation speed.
DISCLAIMER: MandelNet is distributed ‘AS IS’, without warranty of any kind. The autor is not responsible for ANY damage that arises of the use, non-use or mis-use of MandelNet and its components.
MandelNet is Freeware. You may use and distribute it freely, but you may not change it. Any redistribution must include the files ‘MandelNet Master’, ‘MandelNet Slave’, ‘MandelNet ReadMe’ (this text) and ‘MandelNet Doc’.
