Abstract

This paper describes two projects underway to provide users with access to high performance computing technologies. One effort, the National HPCC Software Exchange, is providing a single point of entry to a distributed collection of domain-specific repositories. These repositories collect, catalog, evaluate, and provide access to software in their specialized domains. The NHSE infrastructure allows these repositories to interoperate with each other and with the top-level NHSE interface. Another effort is the NetSolve project which is a client-server application designed to solve computational science problems over a network. Users may access NetSolve computational servers through C, Fortran, MATLAB, or World Wide Web interfaces. An interesting intersection between the two projects would be the use of the NetSolve system by a domain-specific repository to provide access to software without the need for users to download and install the software on their own systems.
