So real computer users are not so interested in fancy metacomputing but rather in being able to run their jobs in a seamless way that does not keep changing as backend computer resources are upgraded
|
|
Viewing computing as a distributed (object) service, need to define a "Java Framework for Computing Services"
|
This enables development of Web Interfaces to run a given job on any computer with any data source compliant with this framework just as JDBC gives a universal interface to any relational database
-
Metacomputing in addition allows linkage of multiple computers to run together on a single job
|
|
The Computing Services Framework will allow vendors to compete on either User Front End (GUI) or back end services with the JavaCS framework providing universal linkage
