Open Source Solaris 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.

Ganglia is a scalable distributed monitoring system for high-performance computing systems such as clusters and Grids. It is based on a hierarchical design targeted at federations of clusters. Supports clusters up to 2000 nodes in size.

A distributed, peer-to-peer, server-less communication & messaging solution for JAVA (JMS), C++ and .NET applications, integrates with JBoss, WebLogic & WebSphere. Offers guaranteed delivery, security and transactions. Supports TCP, SSL & HTTP protocols.

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.

UnixODBC.pm provides a Perl API for the unixODBC driver manager and a bridge API for unixODBC network queries. The sample text-mode, GUI, and Web clients can manage multiple hosts and DBMSs and create RSS output.

The gnuDict use plugins to connect to different dictionaries (stardict, dictd, babylon..)

The goal of Operation Project X is to crack the 2048-bit RSA private encryption key Microsoft uses to sign Xbox media, by using distributed computing. This key could be used by Xbox owners to run homebrew code on their machines.

XDAQ is a software platform designed specifically for the development of distributed data acquisition systems. The development is carried out at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research. Please visit http://xdaq.web.cern.ch

Framework for blockstructured adaptive finite volume methods. Provides MPI-parallelized variant of the Berger-Oliger AMR algorithm for Beowulf-clusters. Uses Clawpack. Visualization and conversion tools for HDF4 files included.

Acelet-Scheduler with SuperScheduler and SuperWatchdog is a Java task scheduler with daemon and GUI for system and application job scheduling, can schedule tasks in a distributed environment. Holiday adjustable. Works out-box. See http://www.acelet.com

JCA compliant connectors for the Berkeley Database system.

Blackboard implements a lightweight, portable tuple space suitable for multi-agent system and distributed component design. Supports implicit invocation via content-filtered asynchronous events, blocking call semantics, and shared memory messaging.

An opensource implementation of JavaSpaces

Boiler-plate code for bootstrapping CORBA 2.5+ applications. The goal is to create a set of cooperative services and components needed by CORBA apps. Essentially, a pre-fabricated CORBA infrastructure that facilitates component based software engineering

Software for reliable url cloaking system using low q.o.s hosts and lines such as home PC's and dsl or cable connections. CDUCK combined DNS-server and webserver functionality and strict security for the creation of reliable domain web cloaking.

Cheshire3 is a fast Z39.50, SRW, XML search engine, written in Python for extensability and using C libraries for speed. Next generation of the Cheshire system (http://cheshire.berkeley.edu) and designed around a distributable, object oriented model.

Compiere MFG+SCM Manufacturing Extended System (MES). Include Shop Floor Control, Supply chain management, Quality management, modbus interface, iReport barcode extension etc. Support batch and on demand manufacturing. Works alone or connected to ERP.

The BCR flavor of Cooperative Data Sharing (CDS) is a scalable, portable, flexible C-based API and daemon for initiating and communicating between processes/threads in uniprocessor and multiprocessor (e.g. distributed, SMP, and parallel) platforms.

CDs can be thought of as a mechanism to support fine-grained, hierarchical, application-directed, uncoordinated checkpoint and restore. Containment Domains (CDs) were created to allow an application to recover in the face of various types of component failures, including hard (e.g. persistent) and soft (e.g. transient) hardware failures, transient software failures, and complete node failures.

The project focuses on developing an environment where one can harness idle CPU cycles of numerous networked systems to work together on a particularly processing-intensive problem. (distributed computing you may call it)

The DocSOAP XML Development Kit (XDK) is a Java Web Services SOAP, and XML Development Kit that provides effective and efficient ways of manipulating XML documents and building Web services solutions for "document style SOAP".

Essence is a simple Java framework with modules for Quantitative Analysis and Distributed Data systems.

Ex-Crawler is divided into 3 subprojects (Crawler Daemon, distributed gui Client, (web) search engine) which together provide a flexible and powerful search engine supporting distributed computing. More informations: http://ex-crawler.sourceforge.net

FedStage OpenDSP is an open implementation of SOAP Web Service multi-user access and policy-based job control using OGF DRMAA routines supported by distributed resource management systems like Sun Grid Engine (SGE), LSF, PBSPro, Torque or Condor.
