Growler 介绍
Growler 是一个基于 C 开发的分布式对象和事件架构。支持 C 的对象序列化作为远程方法调用、事件通道和 IDL 接口定义语言的一部分。
Its primary application has been in support of interactive, distributed
visualization, computational steering, and concurrent visualization, but it is
a general purpose system for distributed programming. Growler is suitable for
application to high-performance LAN environments as well the internet. Its
features include strong integration with C++, selective distributed reference
counting, and efficient well-typed event channels for local as well as remote
event broadcast, with support for low-latency/low-perturbation events via a
loss-tolerant event model.
Several key aspects of growler distinguish it from existing software tools,
particularly when taken together:
-
A C++-based distributed object architecture, based on an Interface DeFinition Language, plus user-defined object serialization.
-
A component-oriented framework for local and distributed components.
-
A “reader-writer buffer” (rwbuffer) communication model for high-performance event channels.
-
A “Signal/Selector” notification model for concurrent, event-driven programming.
-
Event channels supporting “composite state representations”, for synchronized access to interrelated events.
-
Efficient and robust access transparency, via user-defined serialization and copy-minimizing event channels.
Growler provides the architectural underpinnings for another open source
project developed within NASA: nodemon. It was also instrumental in the
development of the Concurrent Visualization pipeline described in [1]. [1]
