From Overview of SciVis Scientific Visualization System :Visit of Team from ARL to NPAC -- Oct 29 97. by Byeongseob Ki, Scott Klasky
Still developing and experimenting to find the best framework
There are several possible methods to implement:
  • Using Socket programming
    • fast
    • Very expensive to maintain elegant programming
  • Using Remote Method Invocation(RMI)
    • RMI is a great abstraction for communicating between Java virtual machines.
    • It's not as efficient as a direct sockets-based method. (5 times slower than socket programming)
  • Exisiting Collaboration Tools (TANGO, etc.)
