NODE:
Either a physical or a virtual computer whose IP address is configured
to be part of a MOSIX cluster or grid. For example, computers with more
than one symmetric processors (SMP) are counted as one node, because
they share the same IP address, but two instances of virtual-machines
running on a single-processor computer are counted as two nodes because
they have different IP addresses.
