Integration of Scientific and Technical Computing with Enterprise Information Systems

Given by Geoffrey C. Fox at RCI North American Annual Member Executive Conference October 13-15 98 on October 15 98. Foils prepared October 16 98

We discuss a multi tier (Gateway) approach to HPCC and how this allows appropriate use of ideas from both high performance and enterprise Intranet communities.
We introduce the Pragmatic Object Web (POW)
We give examples of using WebFlow and JWORB with Globus and show this gives natural integration of CORBA into HPCC
The use of HLA/RTI as control of a bunch of workstations is recommended
We describe Java Grande as an effort to bring better software tools to HPCC
