Foil 57 Aspects of HPCORBA Architecture

From General NPAC Foils-B starting June97(PowerPoint) ParCo Conference Bonn -- Sept 16,97. by Geoffrey C. Fox


1 The following figure illustrates a possible CORBA-HPCC integration framework ( HPCORBA )
2 Each node of a parallel machine runs a lightweight (e.g. Nexus based ) ORBlet which enables both local and remote object services.
3 Coming CORBA3/MOM based messaging and object-by-value frameworks adapted to provide high-performance (e.g. MPI based) object-oriented (IIOP based) inter-node communication.
4 Parallel Computation graphs are represented by Interface Definition Language (IDL) in a language independent way and optimized by parallel compiler technologies.
5 Specific language bindings would result in HPF, HPC++ or HPJava implementations.
6 This framework provides interoperability with the emergent Object Web software industry and offers an elegant solution for scalable parallel I/O ( linking HPCORBA with Oracle CORBA )
