cooperative computing tools

Description

This is a collection of software that help users to share resources in a complex, heterogeneous, and unreliable computing environment. This includes:

* Chirp: A personal filesystem and I/O protocol that allows unprivileged users

to share space securely, efficiently, and conveniently. When combined

with Parrot, Chirp allows users to create custom wide-area

distributed filesystems.

* Parrot: A transparent user-level virtual filesystem that allows any ordinary

program to be attached to a remote storage device such as an FTP

server or a Chirp server.

* Makeflow: A workflow system for parallel and distributed computing that uses

a language very similar to Make.

* Work Queue: A system and API for building master-worker style programs that

scale up to thousands of processors.

* All Pairs: A computational abstraction for running very large Cartesian

products.

* Wavefront: A computational abstraction for running very large dynamic

programming problems.

* The Fault Tolerant Shell: A high-level programming language that allows

users to combine the ease of shell scripting, the power of distributed

programming, and the precision of compiled languages. Basically,

parallel programming and exception handling for scripts.
