Abstract of Commodity Technologies in HPCC
We discuss role of commodity (Web) technologies in future high performance computing environments
We describe how a network of Web/CORBA/COM servers architecture can naturally support both parallel and distributed computing while
We describe applications to both metacomputing, and parallel computing
We suggest critical importance of CORBA and component based software in HPCC -- Javabeans seem very important
We describe role of collaboration technology in linking computers with people
We describe use of Java as a general coding language for scientific and engineering computation
This approach unifies distributed event driven simulations with classic massively parallel time stepped computations
