Foil 5 Application Integration

From What Applications are Grids Good for? Grids 98 Drake Hotel Chicago -- July 27-28 98. by Geoffrey C. Fox


1 Hottest General Area in Intranet conference (after electronic commerce) was "application integration" -- linking the "ᡛ" separate major (SAP, PeopleSoft ..) applications (in typical large corporation) into a "grid"
  • linking marketing, sales, production units with multiple databases and some computing
2 This is similar to classic multidisciplinary application in engineering design and manufacturing as in NASA Power Grid
3 Image processing as in DoD MSTAR program using Khoros
4 Largest opportunity of this type is perhaps SBA -- Simulation Based Acquisition -- which was major theme in recent ITEA (International Test and Evaluation) conference at ARL Aberdeen
5 SBA is plausibly built on top of DMSO HLA/RTI (CORBA like) commodity standards
6 MAPINT 98 Conference at ASC Dayton August 25-27 will discuss
