Abstract
The continuing merger of computer and communication technologies
is leading to a new computing/communications infrastructure of unprecedented
magnitude, enabling new applications with broad economic and social impact.
Yet, such applications pose major challenges to researchers in Computer
Science and in application domains.
The topic of the proposed research program is the realization of
Distributed Laboratories, where individuals can interact with each other,
and more importantly, with powerful, distributed computational tools as
readily as if all were located in a single site. Our intent is to permit
scientists, engineers, and managers at geographically distinct locations
(including individuals 'tele-commuting' from home) to combine their
expertise in solving shared problems, by allowing them to
simultaneously view, interact with, and steer sophisticated
computations executing on high performance distributed computing platforms.
