The following diagram illustrates features of the "gateway concept"

The hardware to support gateway may be different from that natural for HPCC backends
-
typical would be "corporate enterprise servers" such as high-end Unix (SUN, Linux?) servers or PC NT systems
|

Several services would be controlled in "GrandeGateway" -- we illustrate this for collaboration which would allow sharing of information from clients and also backend Super(Grande) computers represented by proxies (e.g. Java or CORBA wrappers) at this level
-
Tango supports user-consultant and multi-user interactions
-
Habanero would show same logical diagram as Tango

There is no clean 1:1 mapping of hardware and software tiers
-
For instance a "logically backend" Oracle database could be hosted on the same SUN Enterprise server running Java servers supporting collaboration, access and other services
