What is “Topologies”—distributed objects on multicomputers about?
Application programs written for large-scale multicomputers with interconnection structures known to the programmer (e.g., hypercubes or meshes) use complex communication structures for connecting the applications' parallel tasks. Such structures implement a wide variety of functions, including the exchange of data or control information relevant to the task computations and/or the communications required for task synchronization, message forwarding/filtering under program control, and so on.__Topology__is a programming and operating system construct that allows programmers to describe and efficiently implement such functionality as distributed objects with well-defined operational interfaces. As with abstract data types, topologies may be reused by any application desiring their functionality. However, in contrast to other research in parallel or distributed object-based operating systems, internally, a topology may be an entirely distributed implementation of the object's functionality, consisting of a communication graph and type-specific computations, which are triggered by messages traversing the graph. Sample computations may perform additions or minimizations of the values t
