Open Source BSD Distributed Computing Software

TurboVNC is a high-performance, enterprise-quality version of VNC based on TightVNC, TigerVNC, and X.org. It contains a variant of Tight encoding that is tuned for maximum performance and compression with 3D applications (VirtualGL), video, and other image-intensive workloads. TurboVNC, in combination with VirtualGL, provides a complete solution for remotely displaying 3D applications with interactive performance. TurboVNC's high-speed encoding methods have been adopted by TigerVNC and libvncserver, and TurboVNC is also compatible with any other TightVNC derivative. TurboVNC forked from TightVNC in 2004 and still covers all of the TightVNC 1.3.x features, but TurboVNC contains numerous feature enhancements and bug fixes relative to TightVNC, and it compresses 3D and video workloads much better than TightVNC while using generally only 5-20% of the CPU time of the latter. Using non-default settings, TurboVNC can also be made to compress 2D workloads as "tightly" as TightVNC.

The OpenSSI project is a comprehensive clustering solution offering a full, highly available SSI environment for Linux. Goals for OpenSSI Clusters include availability, scalability and manageability, built from standard servers.

Blazegraph has moved to Github. Please see https://github.com/blazegraph/database/.

Son of Grid Engine is a community continuation of the old Sun Grid Engine project. It aims to be a big superset of available free gridengine code and patches. The main site is currently https://arc.liv.ac.uk/trac/SGE/ and https://arc.liv.ac.uk/SGE/ but release files are inaccessible there and being hosted here.

MX4J is an Open Source implementation of the Java Management Extensions technology, for both JSR 3 (JMX) and JSR 160 (JMX Remote API).

The Systems Biology Workbench(SBW) is a framework for application intercommunications. It uses a broker-based, distributed, message-passing architecture, supports many languages including Java, C++, Perl & Python, and runs under Linux,OSX & Win32. It comes with a large number of modules, encompassing the whole modeling cycle: creating computational models, simulating and analyzing them, visualizing the information, in order to improve the models. All using community standards, such as SED-ML, SBML and MIRIAM.

MediaEncodingCluster is an Enterprise Class, Video Cluster Environment with a Plattform Independent Client - Server Architecture for distributed video/audio converting/encoding tool over a grid Computing Network Design. more on http://docs.codergrid.de

dispy is a generic and comprehensive, yet easy to use framework for creating and using compute clusters to execute computations in parallel across multiple processors in a single machine (SMP), among many machines in a cluster, grid or cloud. dispy is well suited for data parallel (SIMD) paradigm where a computation (Python function or standalone program) is evaluated with different (large) datasets independently. dispy supports public / private / hybrid cloud computing, fog / edge computing.

YaCy is a free search engine that anyone can use to build search the internet (www and ftp) or to create a search portal for others (internet or intranet). The scale of YaCy is limited only by the number of users and can index billions of web pages. In p2p mode it is fully decentralized, all users of the search engine network are equal and it is not possible for anyone to censor the content of the distributed index.

MARIE is a robotic development and integration environment focused on software reusability and exploitation of already available APIs and middlewares used in robotics. Its main purpose is to create a rapid-prototyping approach to robotics developments.

rshd is a multithreaded daemon service that listens for connections on port 514 (tcp port for the shell/cmd protocol), runs commands passed by clients and sends back the results.

Based on the source code of Sun Grid Engine, we are continuing the open source development effort here on sourceforge.

A Java middleware API supporting broker-less, type+topic-based publish/subscribe and request/reply messaging for both intra- and inter-application, object-level communication. Broker-less: messages are transmitted directly between eBus applications. There is no message broker (i.e. server) in between. Type+topic addressing: eBus clients subscribe to a message class (type) and message topic, providing stronger typing than just topic-based subscriptions. Object-level communication: eBus delivers messages directly to client objects, not to a client process.

Jadex is a Belief Desire Intention (BDI) reasoning engine that allows for programming intelligent software agents in XML and Java. The resoning engine is very flexible.
