描述了MW （Master-Worker）——一个软件框架，它允许用户在计算网格上使用Master-Worker范式快速、轻松地并行化科学计算。MW为应用软件提供了“顶层”接口，也为现有的网格计算工具包提供了“底层”接口。简要介绍了这两个接口。最后，我们给出了一个案例研究，其中必要的网格服务由Condor高吞吐量计算系统提供，支持mw的应用程序代码用于解决前所未有的复杂性的组合优化问题。
Describes MW (Master-Worker) - a software framework that allows users to quickly and easily parallelize scientific computations using the master-worker paradigm on the Computational Grid. MW provides both a "top-level" interface to application software and a "bottom-level" interface to existing Grid computing toolkits. Both interfaces are briefly described. We conclude with a case study, where the necessary Grid services are provided by the Condor high-throughput computing system, and the MW-enabled application code is used to solve a combinatorial optimization problem of unprecedented complexity.
