Mistral extensible design
Posted over 6 years ago by Fabrizio Giudici
Mistral is still very young (spinned off another project last summer) and needs work for completing the API, testing and documenting it. Nevertheless, in the last month it get involved in two small paid projects of mine:
as the back end for a ... [More] webapp used to manage a library of photosin form of a small applet to perform a few operations on faxes(BTW, both the projects will be opensourced and I will talk more about them later). As it happens in such circumstances, I've been working on Mistral with specific focus on the issues related to the two projects (of course there's also the other main workflow, which is supporting the Pleiades project in distributed environments, where I'm working with Emmanuele).

Yesterday I got the first two email messages from people interested in it. The former was from a guy that told me "Mistral has failed the five minutes test". That is, he failed in downloading, compiling and trying some demo in a very short time. He was right, unfortunately. But it was simple to fix it, and most of the needed changes are already in the repository. The latter told me that he is evaluating Mistral, he's using it, but misses some simple features to go on: basically, he needs to strip the "transparency" channel from some PNG images before resizing and writing them in JPEG format (that doesn't support transparency). Fortunately, the flexible and simple design of Mistral allows to easily solve this kind of problems without the need of patches. [Less]

The Mistral project is growing and now there's enough stuff to start blogging about it. So I added a new category in the TidalBlog; furthermore all Mistral-related stuff will be replicated in the new Mistral Blog.

Mistral tested on the Sun Grid
Posted over 6 years ago by Fabrizio Giudici
Today the Mistral plugin for the Sun Grid has been successfully run for the first time on the Sun Grid (using the Pleiades project as a testcase).   The computing code is precisely the same that also run on a local PC or on a home-made cluster ... [More] built with Jini and Rio. Now we can really say that Mistral really delivers WORA in highly scalable scenarios! [Less]
