Foil 33 Events (Messages) and Data

From Tango Interactive Today for Education and Training CEWES(ERDC) Tango Traing -- Sept 16-17 1999. by Geoffrey C. Fox
1 Since TANGO uses central server architecture, there are system scalability concerns.
2 System makes careful distinction between event and data distribution pathways
  • events are always distributed via collaboratory server
  • data may be distributed via collaboratory server for thin data streams
  • voluminous data are either distributed directly between application instances or delivered from HTTP or other servers
  • peer-to-peer application data exchange may use multicast if necessary
  • certain TANGO applications are therefore implemented as Web browsers for specialized data types (e.g., GIS Open Inventor Web browser)
