The Initium RJS Screensaver: Part 4, Automatic Deployment
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Intium RJS System makes use of screensavers to perform CPU scavenging for grid computing. This article shows how to automate the installation of the IRJS screensaver. The manual installation of the IRJS screensaver, presented in parts 1 and 2 of this series, has been automated to ease installation. A Java Web Start application has been created to complete the installation of the screensaver for Windows and Unix/Linux platform. This application performs an operating system identification and proceeds to download, install, and configure the screensaver files. The installation of the screensaver is a function of the OS, due to differences in screensavers support. Our three previous papers showed how to create screensavers in Java for Windows, Linux and Mac operating systems.

متن کاملInitium RJS: A Macintosh Screensaver in Java, Part 3
We describe how to create a Java-based screensaver for a Macintosh. A screensaver is a program that automatically runs when the computer enters a quiescent state. Screensaver frameworks enable CPU scavenging. CPU scavenging enables the use of otherwise wasted CPU cycles. Screensavers are a minimally-invasive technology for volunteering CPU services. Computers typically have 23% utilization (40 ...
متن کاملProject Initium: Programmatic Deployment
In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice; In practice, there is. Abstract This paper describes the design and use of a Java Web Start framework called Initium. Initium generates a jar file that minimizes the number of included classes by performing a static class dependency analysis. It then prompts the programmer for security parameters that enable the programmatic signing...
