 News and Editorials
 
    The BlueBox browser and peer-to-peer programming.
    
    A company known as [15]dLoo, Inc has [16]announced the release of an
    architecture for an extensible open-source peer-to-peer programming
    language that works in conjunction with its BlueBox browser.
    [17][bluebox.jpg] 
    
    BlueBox uses the concept of language structures called words which
    programmers can post on the net in a manner that is similar to posting
    web pages. BlueBox can compile the words that it receives from network
    sites into various languages such as C++, Perl, and Python. The plan
    is to have the words written for various problem domains such as
    mathematics, graphics, and art to name a few possibilities. People
    using the BlueBox browser can then tie various words together to build
    larger programs.
    
    [18]The BlueBox introduction documentation describes the goals of the
    system:
    
      Most programming languages are statically defined when they are
      compiled. C++, Perl, Python, and other languages cannot become
      richer over time after their compilers or interpreters are
      compiled.
      
      This model of building programming languages is pre-Internet,
      mirroring how books, magazines, and journals were published before
      the appearance of Web pages, dynamic content, and hyperlinking.
      
      Instead of this model, however, imagine a programming language that
      was defined on the Internet and more importantly, became richer
      over time as more programmers added to it. This is the idea behind
      BlueBox, a browser that runs a scalable peer-to-peer programming
      language that we are releasing today.
      
    BlueBox and the underlying words seem like a novel idea with many
    possible uses. The notions of tying multiple languages together across
    platforms and linking software together like web pages are fairly
    unique.
    
    To get a better picture of some BlueBox issues, LWN asked Nile from
    the BlueBox project [19]a few questions.
    
    The BlueBox site claims that all of the advertised features are
    already functional. BlueBox is an open-source project that is being
    released under the GPL license.
    
 Clusters
 
    The Do-It-Yourself Supercomputer (Scientific American). Written by the
    people who created the Beowulf clustering software, this article
    explains how the [20]Oak Ridge National Laboratory built a
    supercomputer out of discarded PCs and Linux. "We knew that obsolete
    PCs at the U.S. Department of Energy complex at Oak Ridge were
    frequently replaced with newer models. The old PCs were advertised on
    an internal Web site and auctioned off as surplus equipment. A quick
    check revealed hundreds of outdated computers waiting to be discarded
    this way. Perhaps we could build our Beowulf cluster from machines
    that we could collect and recycle free of charge. We commandeered a
    room at ORNL that had previously housed an ancient mainframe computer.
    Then we began collecting surplus PCs to create the Stone
    SouperComputer."
    
 CORBA
 
    Web services architect, Part 3: Is Web services the reincarnation of
    CORBA? (IBM developerWorks). Dan Gisolfi compares [21]CORBA to web
    services in an IBM developerWorks article. "Even during these early
    stages of the evangelism of Web services, customers have already begun
    to ask how this technology differs from CORBA. Isn't it just another
    form of distributed computing? In this installment of the Web services
    architect, Dan Gisolfi offers a brief overview of the differences
    between SOAP, DCOM, and CORBA and suggests a value proposition for Web
    services within the distributed computing realm."
