WOS: an Internet Computing Environment

چکیده
Given the current development of the Internet, the Web, mobile communications and services, we are clearly heading towards an era of widely integrated ubiquitous services sharing some kind of global operating system. This article describes the idea, the objectives and the current state of the development of the WOS-project. The Web Operating System (WOS) consists of a series of versioned servers where each one can offer different services, themselves versioned. Each node can act as a server or a client. A common protocol, itself versioned, is used for communication among WOSNodes. Requests for services can be passed on to other servers as appropriate. The WOS is defined by the combined actions of different nodes.

Web Operating System and Resource Management
One of the hottest topics that emerged these days between the area of Internet and distrubted computing and the area of operating system is Web Operating System (WOS). The objective of WOS is to deliver the full benefit of the World Wide Web. The WOS will support geographically distributed, highly available, incrementally scalable, and dynamically reconfiguring applications. WOS will include me...
متن کاملSimulation of Search and Distribution Methods for Jobs in a Web Operating System ( Wos)
Internet or WEB computing concepts, such as the Web Operating System (WOS), require suitable methods for finding the most effective hardware and software environment for an application execution on the network. We present an efficient search strategy and show that the resulting communication load penalty is well acceptable while preventing the network from being flooded by administrative overhe...
متن کاملOverview of the Wos Project
We discuss the Web Operating System (WOSTM ) approach to global computing. We show that the heterogeneous and dynamic nature of the Web or Internet makes it impossible to define a fixed set of operating system services, usable for all services. Rather, we propose that generalized software configuration techniques, based on a demand-driven technique called eduction, can be used to define version...
متن کاملA Dynamically Configurable Environment for High Performance Computing
Current tools available for high performance computing require that all the computing nodes used in a parallel execution be known in advance: the execution environment must know where the different “chunks” of programs will be executed, and each computer involved in the execution must be properly configured. In this paper, we describe how the Web Operating System (WOS) environment may be used t...
متن کاملA Mobile and Fog-based Computing Method to Execute Smart Device Applications in a Secure Environment
With the rapid growth of smart device and Internet of things applications, the volume of communication and data in networks have increased. Due to the network lag and massive demands, centralized and traditional cloud computing architecture are not accountable to the high users' demands and not proper for execution of delay-sensitive and real time applications. To resolve these challenges, we p...
