Hi Raymond,
The system we envisage is roughly as follows.
We are running a set of radio telescopes at remote site. The high level
exposure of the various parts of system should be via service components.
The actual implementation is specific to the problem.We have thl telescope
control (of the hardware). The data generated form these telescopes has to
be processed on a supercomputer ( hence implementation in c++), through a
set of services like Calibration, Imaging, Analysis. It also has some
control queue (running the end-to-end process, referencing the various
services), archiving, logging, user access (virtual observatory) components
etc.
I am investigating tuscany for this.

I've just finished reading that thread (as I was away on vacation) and
I'm going to expand the scope of the discussion a little, to see if we
can find the best architecture with SCA for your application :)
What technologies can you run on your supercomputer? just C++ code? or
can you also run Java code (the Tuscany Java runtime for example)?
Does it run Apache Httpd by any chance?
The Tuscany C++ code currently builds on Windows, Linux, Mac-OS. Do you
think that a Linux build (the typical automake build) will work on your
computer?
What protocols are currently available to provide access to your C++
services? any chance you already have support for SOAP Web Services?
Corba? anything else?
