The WWVM is accessed through a Web Browser and requests are sent to the server through HTTP Protocol.
HTTP Server starts a service master which translates given HPF program to F90 with message passing calls and starts-up other client servers.
HTTP Servers at the client side get the requests through the HTTP protocol connection, and activates a Interpreter CGI module.
Interpreter makes calls to the Runtime Support and Communication Server that sends and receives messages using PVM daemons.
