Connection

This widget allows the user to login, launch an application on a remote serial or parallel machine, observe (tracking) its progress, and modify (steer) parameters interactively. Alternatively, the user may start the application (in another window, or with NQS) on the remote machine and use the Connection widget to interact over a period of time. The library permits multiple workstation (client) access to the remote application for tracking purposes. Only one client has permission to steer the simulation. See Section 3.3.3 for an example of its use.
