This looks really cool! I'm curious to learn more about your use of both an unstructured AND a structured overlay -- do I read it right that you're using the unstructured overlay to bootstrap into the structured one?
In other words, if I light up a new Vishwa node without any configuration whatsoever, how does it find and coordinate with the rest of the network? Regardless, very neat! -david On 06/05/2011 10:37 PM, hari sankar wrote: > Dear all, > We have just released an updated version of Vishwa distributed computing > middleware which is freely available for download and use (available at > http://dos.iitm.ac.in/vishwanew/ ).
