Foil 64 Structure(Architecture) of Portal Applications - II

From Integration of Web and Distributed Object Technologies in a New Generation of Grande Programming Environments PDPTA Las Vegas -- June 28 1999. by Geoffrey C. Fox
1 Modules are "natural" message-parallel components of problem and tend to have less stringent latency and bandwidth requirements than those needed to link data-parallel components
  • modules are what HPF needs task parallelism for
  • Often modules are naturally distributed whereas parts of data parallel decomposition may need to be kept on tightly coupled MPP
2 Assume that primary goal of metacomputing system (portal programming environment) is to add to existing parallel computing environments, a higher level supporting module parallelism
  • Now if one takes a large CFD problem and divides into a few components, those "coarse grain data-parallel components" will be supported by computational grid technology
