This chapter describes the Operational Models, Programming Paradigms and Software Tools needed for building a Web- integrated network computing environment. We describe the various interactive distributed computing models (client server-CS, code on demand, remote evaluation, mobile agents, three and N-tier system), different logical modes of programming (imperative, declarative, subjunctive, and abductive), transaction and workflow models (that relax atomicity, consistency, isolation, durability and serializability properties), new protocols, and software tools (PJava/JDBC) that are needed. Some important application areas of these models are for telediagnosis and cooperative problem solving.

Despite the recent popularity of P2P file sharing strategies, on-demand video streaming have traditionally employed client-server type architectures or else multi-cast trees as the principle methods for multimedia delivery. However, as one may suspect, such systems have difficulties associated with the enormous cost when attempting the scale the system upwards to supprt more users. In light of the recent popularity of sites such as YouTube and Revver, a system that better utilizes existing infrastructure would be preferable. This thesis presents DistVid, a new protocol that was developed to combine the features of multi-cast trees and structured P2P overlays. The overall goal of this protocol is to provide a frame work for on-demand video streaming that is both resilient to failure and able to maximize available bandwidth. The work presented here will show that DistVid not only achieves this, but can also be employed to increase the efficiency of existing client-server systems or else replace them entirely.

This chapter introduces the macroscopic views on distributed systems’ components and their inter-relations. The importance of the architecture for understanding, designing, implementing, and maintaining distributed systems is presented first. Then the currently used architectures and their derivatives are analyzed. The presentation refers to the client-server (with details about Multi-tiered, REST, Remote Evaluation, and Code-on-Demand architectures), hierarchical (with insights in the protocol oriented Grid architecture), service-oriented architectures including OGSA (Open Grid Service Architecture), cloud, cluster, and peer-to-peer (with its versions: hierarchical, decentralized, distributed, and event-based integration architectures). Due to the relation between architecture and application categories supported, the chapter’s structure is similar to that of Chapter 1. Nevertheless, the focus is different. In the current chapter, for each architecture the model, advantages, disadvantages and areas of applicability are presented. Also the chapter includes concrete cases of use (namely actual distributed systems and platforms), and clarifies the relation between the architecture and the enabling technology used in its instantiation. Finally, Chapter 2 frames the discussion in the other chapters, which refer to specific components and services for large scale distributed systems.

Paper presents the achievement on parallelized distributed reliable rendering method shown on 3D electromotor designed to be performed on Cluster computer system. In this paper we will describe a proof of concept model of rendering using parametric POVRay model, client-server on-demand rendering architecture with RFC 822 + 1 SMTP and HTTP like keep-alive extensible protocol, using open source elements, configurable rendering architecture, available to use at no cost added to cost of hardware, with new solutions for simple configuration file mechanisms, and resilient behavior of software, based on best effort strategy of work distribution. The paper presents an innovative way of creating distributed reliable rendering method using huge range of computers for parametric modeling. The main aim of this paper is to present a solution that will use existing resources in order to make modeling method more sufficient and for applying complex computer services/jobs under distributed architecture. The implementation also includes logistics and support for automatic computer clustering and for service/job programs execution. The primary goal is to use existing resources for useful applications in the 3D parametric modeling, image programming and simulation rendering.

Prostate adenocarcinoma is the most common malignant tumor of men in the United States and is the third leading cause of death in men. Despite attempts at early detection, there will be 244,000 new cases and 44,000 deaths from the disease in the United States in 1995. Therapeutic progress against this disease is hindered by an incomplete understanding of prostate epithelial cell biology, the availability of human tissues for in vitro experimentation, slow dissemination of information between prostate cancer research teams and the increasing pressure to “ stretch” research dollars at the same time staff reductions are occurring.To meet these challenges, we have used the correlative microscopy (CM) and client/server (C/S) computing to increase productivity while decreasing costs. Critical elements of our program are as follows:1) Establishing the Western Pennsylvania Genitourinary (GU) Tissue Bank which includes >100 prostates from patients with prostate adenocarcinoma as well as >20 normal prostates from transplant organ donors.
