The Software Architecture of a Problem Solving Environment for Enterprise Computing

Abstract

Abstract. Problem Solving Environment (PSE) is a new and diverse area of research, and till now it resists simple universally accepted definitions. In brief, PSE is a complete and integrated computing environment in which new application can be constructed, compiled and executed. This paper describes the concept and software architecture of a PSE for Enterprise computing (E-PSE). The E-PSE is developed to provide transparent access to heterogeneous distributed computing resources in one enterprise, and is to improve research productivity by making it easier to construct, compile and run computer applications so that the enterprise can achieve more advanced economic benefit as soon as possible.
