GLOBAL foilset NII Technologies from WebTop Productivity to Computing -- Industrial Uses of HPCC

Given by Geoffrey C. Fox at Minnesota Presentations at Cray Research and University on 13-14 November 95. Foils prepared 10 November 1995
More Detail! * Foil Index from this file * See also color IMAGE

We describe an analysis of possible industrial uses of HPCC indicating that "NII" (Multimedia servers) applications will dominate.
Looking at applications such as education and manufacturing show important opportunities for linking database and simulations.
This suggests that there are several advantages in building HPCC services such as parallel compilers and messaging systems in terms of Web Technologies.
This brings tremendous leverage of existing and emerging WebTop productivity tools and allows an excellent parallel software engineering environment.
We comment on theimpact of computational science education and our program at Syracuse which now has two tracks -- simulation and Information based.
