... Well, allmost.
Next semester, I will be taking Distributed Computing at GVSU, which
is traditionally a project course. As such, I am looking for a truely
distributed
application to write, support, document, extend, etc. (A cgi script that
updates
a database probably won't cut it. But I'm going to talk to the professor ...)
My current ideas include a massively parrell program to calculate physics
problems
or to calculate fractal images. I don't think writing a distributed denial of
service
program would be a good idea, unless someone else wanted to write a anti-DDS
system and have the two fight it out ...
Perferably, I'd like to use Sockets in multiple environments under multiple
systems, but pipes and shared memory are a possibility.
Other ideas? Does anybody have a MACH system or parellel virutual SUN
machine in west michigan I could experiment on? Or a static IP address with no
proxy, willing to host a "client" (peer) application overnight a few times?
regards,
Matt H.
