In this paper we report on our first experience with a portable, easily usable communication environment, 'Sciddle', for distributing computations over a homogeneous network of UNIX computers. We demonstrate the usefulness of the system with applications from linear algebra and quantum chemistry on a network of Ethernet-connected Sun workstations and of Internet-connected Cray supercomputers, respectively.
