tailieunhanh - Solar Decathlon 2002: The Event in Review

We believe that it is interesting to study the system and software architecture of environments which integrate the evolving ideas of computational grids, distributed objects, web services, peer-to-peer networks and message oriented middleware. Such peer-to-peer (P2P) Grids should seamlessly integrate users to themselves and to resources which are also linked to each other. We can abstract such environments as a distributed system of “clients” which consist either of “users” or “resources” or proxies thereto. These clients must be linked together in a flexible fault tolerant efficient high performance fashion. In this paper, we study the messaging or event system – termed GES or the Grid Event Service. | Solar Decathlon 2002 The Event in Review Mark Eastment Sheila Hayter Ruby Nahan Byron Stafford Cécile Warner National Renewable Energy Laboratory Ed Hancock Mountain Energy Partnership René Howard WordProse Inc. .

Department of Energy Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Acknowledgments The 2002 Solar Decathlon was made possible under the . Department of Energy DOE Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy s Solar Technologies Program. DOE partnered with the National Renewable Energy Laboratory NREL a DOE laboratory BP Solar The Home Depot EDS Electronic Data Systems and the American Institute of Architects to sponsor the event. The dedication and hard work of the 14 pioneering teams from colleges and universities across the United States made the event a success. The authors appreciate the support and guidance of Richard King the Solar Decathlon Competition Director and Photovoltaics Team Leader in the Solar Program who also provided critical review for this document. The authors also thank Greg Barker Mountain Energy Partnership George Douglas NREL Dan Eberle Formula Sun Robi Robichaud NREL and Norm Weaver InterWeaver for their contributions and reviews. As the sun sets on the last day of Solar Decathlon 2002 Competition Director Richard King and Solar Decathlon Project Manager Cécile Warner pause for a photo with representatives from the teams that worked so hard to make the inaugural event and competition an enormous success.
