One such site I have been revisiting in preparation for the fall is a web-based queue system for running Monte Carlo calculations for statistical thermodynamics.  Students access the main page which shows all jobs associated with the queue. A student can submit a new job- either a simple Ising model (magnetic system) or a rare-gas system.  A web form lets them input the parameters: Data from completed jobs can be viewed Selecting...
