Foil 26 Proposed Approach to High Performance Messaging

From General NPAC Foils-B starting June97(PowerPoint) Seamless Computing Conference ECMWF Reading England -- Sept 17,97. by Geoffrey C. Fox


1 As a first step, implement multi-module systems with each module linked via Java Servers
  • Modest performance (non - parallel) linkage with easy database, collaborative system etc. access
2 Where necessary "escape" down to classic HPCC technologies for data transport keeping control at server level
  • e.g. following foil illustrates this for a typical two module coupled CFD(fluids) and CSM(structures) problem
  • e.g. JDBC would access a parallel database in same way as sequential database at control level. However backend would implement "parallel query option" transparently to user.
3 This seems very convenient in JDK 1.1 "event model" which is mechanism used by Javabeans to communicate
  • this is illustrated in foil after next!
