| The fast growth of high bandwidth wide area networks has allowed the building of computational grids, which are constituted of PC clusters and/or parallel machines. Computational grids enable the design of new numerical simulation applications. For example, it is now feasible to couple several scientific codes to obtain a multi-physic application. In order to handle the complexity of such applications, software component technology appears very appealing. However, most current software component models provide no support to transparently and efficiently embed parallel codes into components. This talk deals with an extension to the CORBA Component Model to support parallel components. Preliminary performance results show that bandwidth is efficiently aggregated. |
