Virtual Environments and Distributed Computing at SC'95: GII Testbed and HPC Challenge Applications on the I-WAY

Abstract

This publication documents the activities of the SUPERCOMPUTING '95 (SC'95) Information Architecture group. Several unique events are covered in detail--the Global Information Infrastructure (GII) Testbed for High Performance Computing (HPC) Challenge events that utilize the I-WAY, a national-scale, community-based, applications-driven ATM network. SC'95 Information Architecture activities were primarily organized by: -Electronic Visualization Laboratory, University of Illinois at Chicago -Mathematics and Computer Science Division, Argonne National Laboratory -Electronics and Computing Technologies Division, Argonne National Laboratory -National Center for Supercomputing Applications, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign -San Diego Supercomputer Center
