A Jini-Based Prototype Metacomputing Framework (Research Note)

This paper investigates the possible use of Jini technology for building Java-based metacomputing environments. The paper presents the structure of a prototype Jini metacomputing system. The overall working mechanism and some details of the implementation are described. It is shown that Jini is a suitable technology that deserves the interest of the metacomputing research community.
