(boo)Re: Automation server

Your request is pretty vague.
If you're talking about providing services like HTTP and FTP, etc. CPAN's daemon listing may be a good place to start.
Good luck

My problem is as following : I have a very CPU bound task, than can be divided to a lot of parallel processes. Now I have 2 things I want to achieve: 1. I want each of the processes to use a different CPU (I will use a machine with between 8 to 128 CPU's, and the code I'm currently running uses only 1 CPU). 2. I have many tastk as described above, each slightly different, that are being launched seperately, without my control. Many of them do common calculations. I want a single "server" that will be incharge of all the tasks, so if one task has done a single calculation, and another one needs the same, the "server" could give it the results of the first one. This is why I though about the automation server concept. So - can someone assist me in any of my problems ??... Thanks.	[reply]
