Web computing skeleton: a case study

摘要

An approach to provide a Web-based framework for distributed execution of collaborative applications is presented. The work is a part of a wider on-going project whose aim is to make environmental simulation models publicly available to Internet users. The Web computing skeleton has been constructed from prefabricated Web-enabled components with the ability to open and maintain Web connections and provide collaboration over the Internet. The case study illustrates how a single-user simulation system can be embedded in the skeleton, thus becoming widely available distributed application.
