Abstract
High-performance computing could significantly benefit from publish-subscribe communication, but current systems don't deliver the kind of performance required by applications in that domain. In response, the authors developed Echo, a high-performance event-delivery middleware designed to scale to the data rates typically found in grid environments.This article provides an overview of Echo, the infrastructure on which it's built, and the techniques used to implement it.
