Investigação de ferramentas computacionais para a construção de uma arquitetura baseada em Cluster de PC para aplicação em interface avançada na área de distribuição de energia elétrica

Abstract

In this article, the results of a case study of processing computational solution for the project entitled System computational for losses reduction in energy distribution nets with virtual reality interface are presented. Nowadays, one of the largest barriers found in the use of interactive systems is their complexity, requesting a great processing capacity and needing the use of high cost supercomputers. These factors a lot of times make unfeasible several projects. Ally to that problem, the physical limitation for the allocation of several devices in a single station, it has been other factor that has made it difficult the development of such applications. The funcionalities of several computational tools were researched and appraised, like NetJuggler and Cluster Juggler. Among their characteristics, someone are responsible for distributing the computational processing among several computers with the objective of increasing the processing power.
