Installing the Java Distributed Computational Framework

[ This isn't quite accurate yet, since the shell scripts and such need
to be modified to be configurable.  Read the TODO file for details. ]


-1. If you use Windows, you're on your own.

0.  Install a JDK; install Jini 1.1.  Make sure the Jini *-dl.jar files
    are accessible via a web server.

1.  Set $JAVADEV to where you want classes to be stored.  Your life will
    be easiest if this directory is accessible via a web server. Add
    $JAVADEV to your $CLASSPATH.

2.  Run `make'.

3.  Run `./jdcf_boot'.  This starts rmid, the lookup service, and the
    transaction manager.  Since these two services are activatible, you
    only strictly need to do this once, but if you want to start them
    over from scratch, you'll need to delete rmid's log directory.

4.  Run `./jdcf_space'.  This starts up a transient JavaSpace.

5.  Run `./jdcf_node' on each compute node.

6.  Test the system by trying to run one of the sample programs provided.
    To do this, run `./jdcf_submit -n <number of nodes> ParallelHello 1'.
