New in 7.0: Systems Interfaces & Deployment
Version 7.0 introduces built-in zero-configuration parallel computing. Taking full advantage of
Mathematica's unique symbolic architecture, Version 7.0 provides an unprecedentedly easy and powerful system for taking advantage of multicore and network parallel computing environments. Version 7.0 also introduces new operations on file names that enhance integration into the systems programming workflow.
