Will Windows NT take over the world and swamp UNIX?
  • Small organizations are starting with Windows95 clients and growing their networks by adding Windows NT servers
  • correspondingly software vendors focus on win32 interface
The WebWindows concept says that NT versus UNIX isn't the key issue -- rather most software will not be written for NT, UNIX, MVS, VMS etc but rather to "Web Interfaces"
One can expect that a new class of optimized operating systems will be developed that are designed solely to support web interfaces and web technology
  • Note this new operating system (written in Java?) need not directly support users but only (Web) agents
Timing of these trends is unclear and could be critical

Java provides a convenient way to build flexible graphics interfaces
The screendump shows the message passing traffic and status of (36) parallel nodes used in a sorting algorithm
In the example, the 36 threads are running the explicit algorithm on the client
Alternatively and more generally, the threads are replaying a trace of the program which is or was running on a separate set of nodes
If one uses Web Servers to control master parallel computation or more generally integrates Web into computing, these Web servers can naturally feed event traces into Java based display
  • These traces can be real-time or batch

Many concepts in computer science are very complex and dynamic and both idea as well as implementation are hard to understand
In particular, parallel algorithms for areas such as FFT, matrix algebra, sorting, "fast multipole" required complex data movement which is difficult (for me) to visualize from the basic mathematics.
I suggest using Java as a pedagogical tool to animate such algorithmic data movement
  • Screendumps show a prototype where a jolly orange will represent a matrix element which will roll around.
One can view this as an example of how Web-based technical reprts can represent and transmit knowledge better than printed papers

From Miscellaneous Presentation Material used in 1996 Research Presentations -- 1996. * See also color IMAGE
Full HTML Index
Web Technologies (Java, JavaScript, VRML, TeleScript, Perl, HTML, CGI, HTTP etc.) will probably revolutionize all computing converting todays client/server to WebServer/WebClient and DeskTop to WebTop.
Certainly these technologies provide a pervasive base supporting data transport, 3D object specification, coarse and fine grain objects as well integration with other capabilities such as databases.
We examine the implications for HPCC and suggest that a sustainable HPCC business model can be based around
  • 1)HTTP for messaging
  • 2)HPJava for programming
  • 3)HPVRML for data parallel specification of physical objects
  • 4)WebFlow using JavaScript/Java for data flow (Web Khoros/AVS)
  • 5)Weblinked Relational and object databases for integration of information
  • 6)A set of Java based tools for performance visualization etc.
In the WebWindows Operating System Approach this is implemented on a compute-web of WebServers running on each node of an MPP or distributed cluster.
We examine this picture for MultiDisciplinary Optimization and other applications.

Foil 12 Abstract of Recommendations for Problem Solving Environments (PSE's)

From Miscellaneous Presentation Material used in 1996 Research Presentations -- 1996. * See also color IMAGE
Full HTML Index
This was a summary of some conclusions of a workshop at Purdue Sept. 25-27,1995 and presented at ARPA PI meeting at San Antonio, February 14,1996
The recommendations fall into three broad areas:
Basic Research in Architecture of and Technologies for Problem Solving Environments
  • These are both PSE components and the technologies/methodologies to build PSE's
Promotion of Interactions between academic, commercial, government computer science and user communities
Construction of (rapid) prototypes of "complete" (useable) PSE's for defense applications

Foil 13 Recommendation: Develop Architectures and Frameworks for PSE's - I

From Miscellaneous Presentation Material used in 1996 Research Presentations -- 1996. * See also color IMAGE
Full HTML Index
Develop the requirements for both PSE's and their component technologies
  • Suggest focus on scientific and engineering computation with component modules such as computational geometry, grid generation, particle dynamics and sparse matrix solvers
  • what is role of particular component technologies
Architecture should allow a distributed software development approach with synergistic contributions from loosely coupled groups
Take very successful library software and algorithm activity and augment with study of abstract library structure.
  • This must allow "plug and play" of new algorithms or data structures in a way that does not exclude key technologies

Foil 14 Recommendation: Develop Architectures and Frameworks for PSE's - II

From Miscellaneous Presentation Material used in 1996 Research Presentations -- 1996. * See also color IMAGE
Full HTML Index
Focus on the "glue" for building PSE's as well as the "bricks" -- a paradigm shift
This glue implies interfaces and data exchange formats for numerical and symbolic modules needed as PSE components
Glue includes/implies the software (engineering) approach for developing PSE's
The defined architecture must support identified features of PSE's and their development
  • What are the critical features of scientific PSE's that distinguish them from Quicken (a well-known financial PSE) and say a command and control system which could include say a weather simulation as a sub-PSE
Glueing diverse pieces requires second recommendation of crossdisciplinary interactions

Foil 15 Recommendation: Develop Needed Component Technologies

From Miscellaneous Presentation Material used in 1996 Research Presentations -- 1996. * See also color IMAGE
Full HTML Index
Computational Geometry and Grid generation
Collaborative Computing linked to configuration controlled databases with humans and computers in the loop
Multi-level object technology for reusable, maintainable, robust software which is performance portable -- focus on complete PSE and not just computational kernels
Mechanisms for validating correctness of numerical code
Metacomputing -- PSE's are naturally set up as cross-country (institution) distributed computing systems
Wrapper technology for legacy Systems (Rockwell tells me next DoD aircraft needs 10,000 separate programs to be run!)
Large scale knowledge base systems for particular domains -- real engineers must use these PSE's
As well as normal scalable algorithms, software, filesystems, databases etc.

Foil 16 Recommendation: Encourage Multi-Community Interactions

From Miscellaneous Presentation Material used in 1996 Research Presentations -- 1996. * See also color IMAGE
Full HTML Index
Many researchers (e.g. Grand Challenge collaborations) are developing independently what are essentially PSE's for physics, chemistry, engineering ....
  • Most do not know they are developing a PSE and that by using such a framework, they could (re)use work of others.
Need to gather these communities -- academia, government, industry, computer technology, application development -- together to establish framework for development of standards, exchange experiences (what works and what doesn't) and requirements
This discussion should include libraries, interfaces, data-structures, representation, middleware and PSE components
HELP! * GREY=local HTML version of LOCAL Foils prepared 6 May 1996

Foil 17 Recommendation: Develop Prototype PSE's

From Miscellaneous Presentation Material used in 1996 Research Presentations -- 1996. * See also color IMAGE
Full HTML Index
Of course all this basic research needs to be tested and evaluated!
We should create some complete scientific and/or engineering prototype PSE's
This should be multi-disciplinary on both computer technology side (algorithms, software, user-interface, artificial intelligence, database, collaboration etc.) and on application side
Choose an area where PSE adds value to an established computational area rather than proposing a new solution
  • So we test PSE approach and not role of computation in a particular area
Set-up as microcosm of proposed general case with distributed loosely coupled development as well "entries" in key components

Foil 18 Some Remarks on HPJava

From Miscellaneous Presentation Material used in 1996 Research Presentations -- 1996. * See also color IMAGE
Full HTML Index
Features of the Java language and runtime
  • Secure, architecture neutral, Object Oriented but simpler than C++
  • runtime modules dynamically downloadable with applet mechanism and portable opcodes (from PC, Mac, to Workstation)
Can build on existing work on HPF HPC++ -- especially latter
Two basic types of opportunities:
  • Build a modest performance totally portable runtime in Java
  • Use current PCRC runtime as native classes for a (data-parallel) Java
  • What is minimum set of PCRC routines which MUST be native(C)?
Applet mechanism naturally incorporates task parallelism -- need to add "channel" class (as in Fortran-M, CC++) to augment "thread" and "socket" classes
  • Need to implement Java runtime in Nexus or similar distributed thread package -- again native Java would be portable but lowish performance
Java can be used both on Server and Client side as expect soon good Java based clients and servers

Foil 21 General Framework of WebMed - Telemedicine Lessons

From Miscellaneous Presentation Material used in 1996 Research Presentations -- 1996. * See also color IMAGE
Full HTML Index
Telemedicine concepts until mid '95 were based on the assumption of rapid onset of the broadband wide area networking infrastructure.
Dominant anticipated medium was direct life video linkage between patients and physicians.
However this is not considered by some to be very succesful and new approach to Telemedicine is based on decision support for doctors with an environment very similar to that needed by Command and Control in the military or the LOTUSNotes like environment in Business
  • Need Image Processing in medicine not weather simulation as in military or market segmentation analysis in Business but similar adaptive access to diverse distributed databases
Slowdown in the ATM deployment, rapid explosion of Web technologies with variable bandwidth conditions, and new social and economic needs for the managed care based medicine, implies currently the paradign shift in the near term telemedicial environments.

Warner' team came up with the Bridge Concept which was prototyped by his organization I3 and ECU and succesfully demonstrated with Web Components from NPAC at WWVR'96 in San Diego
The Bridge connects patients/care portals with quality healthcare professionals (DOCking stations) via the intelligent middleware station(this will be Web), offering suitable routing and optimizing the message traffic, service quality and expert time utilization.
The emerging Web based framework (WebMed) addresses near term implementation in terms of today's networks and matches the social/patients and HMO/economy needs in terms of pervasive low cost infrastructure.
New Web based telemedicine initiative WebMed at NPAC addresses these issues in a set of planned pilot projects.

From Miscellaneous Presentation Material used in 1996 Research Presentations -- 1996. * See also color IMAGE
Full HTML Index
WWW already offers a vast amount of useful information in the healthcare area but its localization and maintenance becomes increasingly complex with the Web expansion.
The goal of this thrust is to develop a systematic procedure for scanning the Web, selecting information relevant for the pilot projects, and constructing a set of relational or OO/MultiMedia databases.
Natural approach is to use relational (text) or object(2D and 3D images) databases to store this information which will become the background "information sea" for future Web based TeleMedicine
Oracle database with Java/JavaScript Frontend is Natural Web based patient care database
  • Such records will be likely distributed, with components located at home, family physician office and specialist lab.
  • The associated services will offer tools for record design, editing, management/storage, history control, secure transfer, structural/hierarchical presentation, and statistical analysis.

This is a Pilot project to prototype an instance of the telemedicine Bridge concept.
Home care terminals - Our initial project is a Web (Java/JavaScript) version of Warner's "neat thing" sensory front-end, with rehabilitation and disabilities as initial application target.
  • This builds on Warner's earlier activity in VR for which he is well known
This allows Doctors to interact with Patients at the Home with Instruments monitoring their health

Foil 31 Petaflop Performance for Flow in Porous Media?

From Miscellaneous Presentation Material used in 1996 Research Presentations -- 1996. * See also color IMAGE
Full HTML Index
Why does one need a petaflop (1015 operations per second) computer?
These are problems where quite viscous (oil, pollutants) liquids percolate through the ground
Very sensitive to details of material
Most important problems are already solved at some level, but most solutions are insufficient and need improvement in various respects:
  • under resolution of solution details, averaging of local variations and under representation of physical details
  • rapid solutions to allow efficient exploration of system parameters
  • robust and automated solution, to allow integration of results in high level decision, design and control functions
  • inverse problems (history match) to reconstruct missing data require multiple solutions of the direct problem
