MOVIE model for open systems based high performance distributed computing

MOVIE (multitasking object-oriented visual interactive environment) is the new software system for high performance distributed computing (HDPC), currently in the advanced design and implementation stage at Northeast Parallel Architectures Center (NPAC), Syracuse University. MOVIE System is structured as a multiserver network of interpreters of high-level object-oriented programming language MovieScript. MovieScript derives from PostScript and extends it in the C++ syntax based object-oriented interpreted style towards 3D graphics, high performance computing and general purpose high level communication protocol for distributed and MIMD-parallel computing. The authors describe the overall open systems based MOVIE design and itemize currently implemented, developed and planned components of the system.<
