Abstract

The implementation of an interface to support cooperative work in a heterogeneous computing environment is based on previously proposed definitions referred to as Cooperative Work Model (CWM) and Cooperative Work Language (CWL). The Interface for Cooperative Work (ICW) and the Graphical Interface for Cooperative Work (GICW) are the main two components of a tool useful in the set up and control of a cooperative working environment in a general purpose heterogeneous computing platform. This tool is described in this paper as well as some desired characteristics to improve its effectiveness. The specification and control of a virtual parallel machine are illustrated with an algorithm for 3D-reconstruction from two stereoscopic images. Test results on this application are also reported.
