Client Program

[rvighne]

Epic

This program will act on behalf of the user to coordinate tasks among the available daemons until the job has been completed.

• The user will interact with the client via the command-line controller (Controller #4).
• It must process the dependencies of a given job plan and send work to worker daemons.
• It must automatically discover daemons on the network, so the user need not supply that info.
• It will handle failures in the daemons by retrying or reassigning work, so that task execution remains transparent to the user.
