From Tango for Distance Education and Training Today Rice University Tango Tutorial -- October 18 1999. by Geoffrey C. Fox


Session Manager provides TANGO GUI
  • Provides uniform application session and floor control for all TANGO applications
    • Launches applications locally or remotely, creates and connects to existing sessions, exits applications, logs into the system, etc.
    • Routes messages between applications on the same node
    • Monitors integrity of the distributed system
    • User interface to the control application auto-adjusts to the operating system
  • SM communicates with the system via LD
    • The communication between control application and local daemon is different than in the case of standard Java applets since control application can also generate system messages
