Features

Currently we are using JavaPorts version 3.0. In this version we have added:

• Ability to compose an application using combination of new and reusable software components
• The JPVAC tool for graphically capturing and modifying task graphs
• An improved inter-task communications protocol that is totally transparent to the user
• Methodology for launching the RMI registry on the target nodes automatically and transparently to the user
• Scripts for automatic launching of applications from a single point in Linux and Solaris clusters with or without NFS support.
• Integration of Java and Matlab JP components into the same applications
• Automatic distributed termination of JP application tasks
• The JPVTC tool for graphically capturing the behavior of tasks that form the application and performing what-if performance investigations of various distributed configurations before any coding is attempted
• A scalable and non-intrusive system to monitor the static/dynamic attributes of the machines in a user defined pool as well as the network links connecting the machines
• A QoS GUI to manage the resource monitoring system and run QoS management sessions to schedule the application to a suitable set of machines before it is launched
• Application-level middleware to support runtime component self-adaptation for performance and fault tolerance in cluster computing
• A simple to use and anonymous QoS API to enable a JP component to obtain and adapt itself at runtime according to the collected load/state resources information
