The Management System for Heterogeneous Networks (MSHN) is a system for managing a set of distributed resources. Integral to MSHN is the maintenance of status information concerning the resources available on those systems. The paper focuses on monitoring the end-to-end performance of message passing. The method used to gather this information is subject to three constraints: (1) the implementation must not require any changes to the operating system; (2) modifications to the application code must be minimized; and (3) the overhead imposed by the information gathering mechanism should not be excessive. We examined eight tools and application components, both commercial and research, that attempt to measure end-to-end message passing performance (W. Hayes-Roth and L. Erman, 1994; J. Kresho, 1997; C. Lee et al., 1998; N. Spring, 1997; R. Wolski et al., 1997).

The Laboratory for Human Interaction in the Virtual Environment at the Naval Postgraduate School is one of the leading groups for the comprehensive study of humans in the virtual environment. The lab builds on work completed by the NPSNET Research Group to push the edge of human interaction. The HIVE Lab is additionally working towards the acceptance of a Masters program for this work at NPS and is driving the creation of the da Vinci Consortium for the study of humans in the virtual environment.
