Distributed System

What do I need this part of the system to do?

Pass out the files containing all information that a system will need to run the VE and genetic algorithm. Return a log file to the master machine. Run checks to insure the others machines are accessible and how far along they are in there current generation.


How will it do this?

A simple combination of messages and acknowledgments will do for the running checks bit. FTP protocols will be used to send the Files across.
A separate tread will be need to listen for calls so that ongoing work will not be effected.
