Foil 52 TANGO for Distributed Simulation and Computational Steering

From Web Based Education and Training -- Lets Go for It! Dynamics of the Networked Academy Mississippi State Univ. -- September 9-11 1998. by Geoffrey C. Fox


Clearly Java Collaboration Systems are natural implementations of general environments that mix computers and people
Computational Steering -- a simulation is like a participant in a Tango session which has
  • simulation engine
  • visualization subsystem
  • one of more computational scientists
Distributed Modeling and Simulation (from DMSO) with "humans and computers in the loop" already has this type of architecture
NCSA has developed a prototype collaborative visualization system using Tango (2D and 3D images can be shared by participants with viewpoint and choice of rendering replicated)
