CISE Research Instrumentation: Interactive Distributed Computing

9422033 Schwan该合同为10个Sun SPAC工作站和2个具有用户界面能力的SGI Indy工作站的计算集群的收购提供支持。将支持的研究项目包括交互式科学计划、分布式协作、交互式模拟和交互式系统中的高效状态共享。这项研究的一个目标是开发系统和用户界面技术，允许使用计算、网络和用户界面功能来现实地解决问题。主要研究项目包括与在多台联网的并行机上运行的科学模拟进行在线交互；允许用户远距离协作的协作支持系统；允许最终用户结合实际系统操作运行和查看系统模拟的交互式模拟；以及开发操作系统技术，解决在单台并行机和多个联网的工作站或超级计算机之间有效共享状态的问题。***

9422033 Schwan This award provides support for the acquisition of a computational cluster of 10 Sun SPARCstations, and 2 user-interface capable SGI Indy workstations. The research projects to be supported include interactive scientific programs, distributed collaboration, interactive simulations, and efficient state sharing in interactive systems. A goal of the research is to develop systems and user interface technologies that will allow the realistic solution of problems using computing, networking and user interface capabilities. Primary research projects include on-line interaction with scientific simulations running on multiple, networked parallel machines; collaboration support systems that will allow users to collaborate over long distances; interactive simulations that will allow end users to run and view system simulations in conjunction with actual system operation; and development of operating system technologies that address the efficient sharing of state on single parallel machines and across multiple networked workstations or supercomputers. ***
