B.1. System Hardware

Quite modest configurations will support a class of undergraduates because the code examples from this book take up little disk space and consume very few CPU cycles. Several approaches would be feasible, depending on cost, availability, and organizational policies. We outline options here for actual hardware and for simulated environments.

B.1.1. Itanium Workstation or Server

You can use a dedicated Itanium-based system as small as a workstation, local to your own department. Alternatively, you can use a shared general purpose server located elsewhere within your organization.

Intel Corporation maintains a Web page with the names of vendors actively marketing Itanium-based systems:
