Some historical examples of PUPS/P3 applications
The alpha and beta releases of
PUPS/P3
system has already been used to build a number of
applications which consist of sets of interacting parallel processes or which
have to run in a fault tolerant manner for weeks, or even months. These include:
 |
The seriate
and
smboltzmann codes, developed in collaboration with
the University of Newcastle Neural Systems Group for the
Brain Mapping Project. In addition to its
nueroinformatic uses, the seriate application has also
been used to analyse fungal
DNA sesquences (in colloboration with Professor Paul Bridge at Birckbeck College, London) and will
be used to analyse DNA sequences from the
Hyles euphorbiae complex of hawkmoths, some of which are described
here as an aid in understanding the taxonomy
and evolution of this complex (in collaboration with Dr Ian Kitching,
Natural History Museum, London, and Professor Paul Bridge of The
Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew). Some intial work in this area has already been done using spacer DNA sequences from a number of species of
legume Ascochyta fungii.

The itg
stereo matching system which is owned by Tumbling Dice Ltd and which was developed in association with
Oxford Earth Sciences and
Laser-Scan.
| |
The DAISY
automated insect recognition system, owned by Tumbling Dice Ltd and initially developed in collaboration with
Natural History Museum London uder the aegis of Uk Government
Darwin Initiative Funding.
| |
The Oscar project, which is using the PUPS/P3 environment to implement an interactive
scheduler for
SGI supercomputers.
| |
The PUPS/P3-MOSIX project, which is integrating PUPS/P3 with the
Hebrew University of Jerusalem MOSIX cluster
computing environment.
