Foil 52 Minimal Web based Multidisciplinary Application

From General NPAC Foils-98A starting January 98 (PowerPoint) General Research -- January 98 -->. by Geoffrey C. Fox


1 This combines TANGO for collaboration with WebFlow to link server side applications
2 If necessary WebFlowcould support high performance inter-module communication as in structures-CFD Linkage example but it would always implement control at middle tier and this allows TANGO integration with server side computation
  • This illustrates why we keep control at tier 2 so adding collaboration does not disturb high performance layer
3 WebFlow communication model is a dynamic dataflow
4 Of course other server side compute models are possible and in general need (web-linked) data bases, file systems, object brokers etc.,
5 On client one can share tools such as CAD systems like CATIA or AUTOCAD so Tango interfaces with API to these system and drives "slaves" from state extracted from linkage to master.
