Development of a tracking and steering system in a network environment

We have been developing a tracking and steering system, which can successively observe numerical data during the numerical computation and can change parameters in the numerical analysis. Moreover, the proposed system is also developed to connect computers in the network: one for numerical computation, the other for visualization, tracking, and steering of the numerical computation. In this paper, we propose two kinds of systems with different methods of communication between computers. One is the application software client, where the computers are directly communicated by using TCP/IP. Another is the web browser client, where the web server and web browser are necessary. The proposed system enables users to control the numerical computation from everywhere.
