To create a client, server set-up written perl, this will allow for users to submit a job to be processed which will then be submitted to a free processing box, for processing.
A data processing organizational concept under which computer resources of a company are installed at more than one location with appropriate communication links. Processing is performed at the user's location generally on a mini or micro-computer, and under the user's control and scheduling, as opposed to processing for all users which is done on a large, centralized computer system.
Software architecture that uses more than one computer to divide the processing for a set of related jobs. Distributed processing reduces the processing load on a single computer.
n. Processing that takes place across two or more linked systems.
Data processing handled by a number of computers concurrently.
Interconnection of two or more computers so that they can work together on the same problem, not necessarily under the direction of a single control program.
Processing on a number of networked computers , each of which has local memory. The computers may or may not be of different relative power and function.
Distributed Processing is achieved by any system which is composed of several interconnected entities that co-operate. The entities are generally sited on different locations in space. source: EU-P103 domain: Development Environment usage: Eu-P103
A computer system in which processing is performed by several separate computers linked by a communications network. The term often refers to any computer system supported by a network, but more properly refers to a system in which each computer is chosen to handle a specific workload, and the network supports the system as a whole.
The processing of different parts of the same application in different systems, on one or more processors.
Dispersion of data processing among computers in multiple sites.
The physical or logical distribution of software components, processing, data, and management of application software.
Data processing that takes place at a decentralised location as opposed to a central or mainframe location.
A system in which processing of applications stored on the network is done by client computers. "Distributed processing" is also sometimes used to refer to "distributed applications."
Processing that is distributed among computers and terminals in an organization through a network, rather than being done entirely on a central computer.
A computing environment that contains a client and a server. This structure allows the workload to be divided into parts yet appear as a single process.
Use of computers at various locations, typically interconnected via communication links for the purpose of data access and/or transfer.
An approach that allows one application program to execute on multiple computers linked together by a network. The networked computers share the work between them.
Division of front-end and back-end processing to different computers. Oracle Network Services support distributed processing by transparently connecting applications to remote databases.
Putting data processing hardware where data originates.
The ability to have several computers working together in a network, where each processor runs different activities for a user, as required.
A system in which each computer or node in the network performs its own processing and manages some of its data while the network facilitates communications between the nodes.
The technology that enables the distribution throughout the network of computing power and storage facilities to user work areas, such as offices, laboratories, or machines on factory floors.
When a process is spread over two or more devices, it is distributed. It is usually used to spread CPU loads among a network of machines.
The use of more than one processor to divide the processing for a set of related jobs. Distributed processing reduces the processing load on a single processor by allowing different processors to concentrate on a subset of related tasks, thus improving the performance and capabilities of the system as a whole. An ORACLE database system can easily take advantage of distributed processing by using its client-server architecture. In this architecture, the database system is divided into two parts: a front-end or a client portion and a back-end or a server portion. SQL*Net supports distributed processing by transparently connecting applications to remote databases. Different from, but often confused with, distributed database. See also remote database.
Processing on a number of networked computers that do not share main memory. One typically infers the computers are of different relative power and function. An example is a supercomputer, a mini-computer, and a workstation all providing computation for a single application in such a way that the process is distributed appropriately over all the vehicles.
A variety of computer systems that use more than one computer, or processor, to run an application.
Division of front-end and back-end processing to different computers. SQL*Net supports distributed processing by transparently connecting applications to remote databases.
An operation that processes information in a number of locations instead of just one. (HG) In a system with SMDR data collection at multiple locations or switches, each location processes its own data and stores it locally. The individual units can still be accessed via the WAN from a central location and reported on separately or collectively as if the data resided in a central location. See also CENTRALIZED PROCESSING
