β¦ Synopsis
A novel mathematical data model is investigated as a basis for software environments integrating high performance numerical computation, spontaneous visualization, computation steering, and visual programming in the context of distributed, parallel or network computing. By implementing this data model using enhanced versions of several existing software technologies, we plan to create an entirely new sort of computational environment that will make it much easier for scientists to focus the coming generation of high performance, parallel computers on compute-intensive scientific problems.

This paper presents the new Flexible Hypercube architecture. The Flexible Hypercube is a fault-tolerant network topology that can be constructed for an arbitrary number of nodes and is incrementally expandable. This topology maintains the strong features of the Hypercube while overcoming deficiencie
A clear separation of the programming of individual software modules from their configuration to form a system provides a sound basis for building flexible distributed systems which support modification and extension.
