Wide-Area Parallel Computing in Java

چکیده
Java’s support for parallel and distributed processing makes the language attractive for metacomputing applications, such as parallel applications that run on geographically distributed (wide-area) systems. To obtain actual experience with a Java-centric approach to metacomputing, we have built and used a high-performance widearea Java system, called Manta. Manta implements the Java RMI model using different communication protocols (active messages and TCP/IP) for different networks. The paper shows how widearea parallel applications can be expressed and optimized using Java RMI. Also, it presents performance results of several applications on a wide-area system consisting of four Myrinet-based clusters connected by ATM WANs.

متن کاملJava Parallel Secure Stream for Grid Computing
The emergence of high speed wide area networks makes grid computing a reality. However grid applications that need reliable data transfer still have difficulties to achieve optimal TCP performance due to network tuning of TCP window size to improve the bandwidth and to reduce latency on a high speed wide area network. This paper presents a pure Java package called JPARSS (Java Parallel Secure S...
متن کاملAn Approach to Asynchronous Object-Oriented Parallel and Distributed Computing on Wide-Area Systems
This paper presents a exible and e ective model for objectoriented parallel programming in both local and wide area contexts and its implementation as a Java package. Blending remote evaluation and active messages, our model permits programmers to express asynchronous, complex interactions, so overcoming some of the limitations of the models based on message passing and RPC and reducing communi...
