Abstract:
The results presented in this paper describe the achievements with the development of techniques, implementing a standard way for computing communication in complex integrated information and computing systems. Compute Envelopes can provide means for generic data processing and flexible information exchange, namely computation objects. Targeting mission critical environments, the interfaces can embed instruction information, validation and verification methods. The application covers challenges of collaborative implementation, legal, and security issues with these processes. A major task is integrating information systems with Distributed and High Performance Computing (HPC) resources in natural sciences disciplines, scientific information systems, for building integrated public / commercial information system components within the e-Society. The main focus of this paper is on how to simplify the integration of information and computing resources from modular system architectures, using envelope techniques reducing complexity and strengthening trust aspects in future integrated information and computing systems.
