Abstract of Distance Computing and Collaboration for DSWA

From General NPAC Foils-98A starting January 98 (PowerPoint) DSWA HPCC REquirements Workshop TASC Building Rosslyn VA -- 20 February 98. by Geoffrey C. Fox *
1 We discuss role of commodity (Web) technologies in future high performance computing environments
2 We describe how a network of Web/CORBA/COM servers architecture can naturally support both parallel and distributed computing while
3 We describe applications to both metacomputing, and parallel computing and suggest this approach can provide attractive user environments leveraging the huge commodity investment
4 We suggest critical importance of CORBA and component based software in HPCC -- Javabeans seem very important
5 This approach unifies distributed event driven simulations with classic massively parallel time stepped computations and so combines DMSO HLA/RTI with classic HPCC
6 We describe role of collaboration technology in linking computers with people
7 We finish with remarks on University requirements and issues in HPCC connected to research in HPCC, use of HPCC systems and education
