Foil 89 Can HPcc Give High Performance if applied to each node of a parallel computer?

From Java Grande: Role of Java in Large Scale Computations NPACI Summer Institute on Parallel Computing -- August 21 98. by Geoffrey C. Fox
1 YES! If one uses the same separation between control and data transfer explained for metacomputing case
2 Build a "bridge" that accepts MPI HTTP or CORBA invocation but invokes either the powerful slow CORBA mechanism or the nifty optimized MPI
3 Why address nodes as CORBA? -- so you can build applications uniformly so they can access nodes and servers around the world in same message passing style
4 Why address nodes with MPI? -- so you can get code that executes very fast!
5 Why address nodes with HTTP? -- so you can get advantages of CORBA today as Web Servers dominate!
