Treffer: A Java Founded LOIS-framework and the Message Passing Interface? : An Exploratory Case Study

In this thesis project we have successfully added an MPI extension layer to the LOIS framework. The framework defines an infrastructure for executing and connecting continuous stream processing applications. The MPI extension provides the same amount of stream based data as the framework’s original transport. We assert that an MPI-2 compatible implementation can be a candidate to extend the given framework with an adaptive and flexible communication sub-system. Adaptability is required since the communication subsystem has to be resilient to changes, either due to optimizations or system requirements.
