Open Source BSD Distributed Computing Software

TurboVNC is a high-performance, enterprise-quality version of VNC based on TightVNC, TigerVNC, and X.org. It contains a variant of Tight encoding that is tuned for maximum performance and compression with 3D applications (VirtualGL), video, and other image-intensive workloads. TurboVNC, in combination with VirtualGL, provides a complete solution for remotely displaying 3D applications with interactive performance. TurboVNC's high-speed encoding methods have been adopted by TigerVNC and libvncserver, and TurboVNC is also compatible with any other TightVNC derivative. TurboVNC forked from TightVNC in 2004 and still covers all of the TightVNC 1.3.x features, but TurboVNC contains numerous feature enhancements and bug fixes relative to TightVNC, and it compresses 3D and video workloads much better than TightVNC while using generally only 5-20% of the CPU time of the latter. Using non-default settings, TurboVNC can also be made to compress 2D workloads as "tightly" as TightVNC.

dispy is a generic and comprehensive, yet easy to use framework for creating and using compute clusters to execute computations in parallel across multiple processors in a single machine (SMP), among many machines in a cluster, grid or cloud. dispy is well suited for data parallel (SIMD) paradigm where a computation (Python function or standalone program) is evaluated with different (large) datasets independently. dispy supports public / private / hybrid cloud computing, fog / edge computing.

DelphiWebStart (DWS) is an Application Loader with TCP Sockets based on a ThinClient first spread over the Web, VPN or Intranet. So a user can download data (exes, maps, files) from a list and start it. DWS supports OpenSSL including a PKI HTTPS-Server.

CGRU is an open source CG tools pack, includes Afanasy render farm manager and RULES project tracker.

Ganglia is a scalable distributed monitoring system for high-performance computing systems such as clusters and Grids. It is based on a hierarchical design targeted at federations of clusters. Supports clusters up to 2000 nodes in size.

MARIE is a robotic development and integration environment focused on software reusability and exploitation of already available APIs and middlewares used in robotics. Its main purpose is to create a rapid-prototyping approach to robotics developments.

openQRM is a web-based open source datacenter management and hybrid cloud computing platform that integrates flexibly with existing components in enterprise data centers. Releases available at https://github.com/openQRM/openqrm-community. Please visit http://www.openqrm-enterprise.com for latest 5.3 free Community Release. Includes important security updates, bugfixes and enhancements especially for KVM and Cloud plugin. openQRM abstracts Virtualization and supports the following virtualization technologies: KVM, XEN, Citrix XenServer, VMWare ESX & LXC. The Hybrid Cloud Connector in openQRM supports a range of private or public cloud providers to extend your infrastructure on demand via Amazon AWS, Eucalyptus or OpenStack. openQRM automates provisioning, virtualization, storage and configuration management, and it takes care of high-availability.

A Java middleware API supporting broker-less, type+topic-based publish/subscribe and request/reply messaging for both intra- and inter-application, object-level communication. Broker-less: messages are transmitted directly between eBus applications. There is no message broker (i.e. server) in between. Type+topic addressing: eBus clients subscribe to a message class (type) and message topic, providing stronger typing than just topic-based subscriptions. Object-level communication: eBus delivers messages directly to client objects, not to a client process.

Distributed session caching tools and APIs, primarily for SSL/TLS servers though perhaps useful for other (non-SSL/TLS) circumstances. Also includes a self-contained network abstraction library (libnal), and the sslswamp SSL/TLS benchmark/test utility.

YARP, Yet Another Robot Platform. Always dreamt of controlling a humanoid robot? ...well, we do that. A C++ library for IPC, vision and control. This project was migrated to GitHub: https://github.com/robotology/yarp

UNICORE is a software suite for building federated systems, providing secure and seamless access to heterogeneous resource such as compute clusters and file systems. UNICORE deals with authentication, user mapping and authorization, and provides a comprehensive set of RESTful APIs for HPC access and workflows. Contributors: visit https://github.com/UNICORE-EU

MX4J is an Open Source implementation of the Java Management Extensions technology, for both JSR 3 (JMX) and JSR 160 (JMX Remote API).

Moved to sf.net/projects/cloveretl/ !!! CloverETL is a Java ETL framework which transforms structured or unstructured data. Works as a standalone application or embedded in other applications as a data transformation library of functions.

Son of Grid Engine is a community continuation of the old Sun Grid Engine project. It aims to be a big superset of available free gridengine code and patches. The main site is currently https://arc.liv.ac.uk/trac/SGE/ and https://arc.liv.ac.uk/SGE/ but release files are inaccessible there and being hosted here.

Blazegraph has moved to Github. Please see https://github.com/blazegraph/database/.
