Interview with Van Simmons about JINI and ComputeCycles - Part 3

Fully formatted shownotes can always be found at http://javaposse.com

We now have a google group for the Java Posse at http://groups.google.com/group/javaposse

Van is the leader of the ComputeCycles project. ComputeCycles is an open-source project which uses Jini, Glassfish and Groovy to build a secure, scalable, "on-the-fly" compute grid. In this interview he talks about the role Jini plays in that effort and why it's used at the core of the ComputeCycles project.
