Freshmen BME majors at Johns Hopkinsface additional decisions including which laboratory to work in and which focus area withinBME to pursue. Each student at Johns Hopkins must choose a focus area by the end of theirsophomore year, such as cell and tissue engineering, systems biology, imaging, instrumentation,or computational biology.

Taught at thecommunity college level, the topics need to be understandable and relevant. The topics also mustbe general enough to apply to what ever processor or system may be in vogue at the students’chosen upper division school. There is no single correct choice. There is also no wrong choice.This paper discusses the selection of a processor and the rationale for using a solderlessbreadboard rather than a more sophisticated

IntroductionDue to the continuing decreases in the prices of commodity off-the-shelf (COTS) computerhardware (PC-class processors and Fast and Gigabit Ethernet switches), and the development offree parallel computer systems software (Linux operating system and MPI software that allowsprocessors to share data with each other via message passing), it has become possible to build apersonal MPP for a relatively modest cost.
