.NET VNC Viewer is a VNC viewer written entirely in C#. It is binary compatible with Smartphones, Pocket PCs and Windows desktops (.NET CF or .NET Framework). I write this because other VNC viewers on Pocket PC do not do full screen and screen rotation.

YaCy is a free search engine that anyone can use to build search the internet (www and ftp) or to create a search portal for others (internet or intranet). The scale of YaCy is limited only by the number of users and can index billions of web pages. In p2p mode it is fully decentralized, all users of the search engine network are equal and it is not possible for anyone to censor the content of the distributed index.

IIOP.NET allows a seamless interoperation between .NET, CORBA and J2EE distributed objects. This is done by incorporating CORBA/IIOP support into .NET, leveraging the remoting framework.

The purpose of the project is to develop a portable programming framework that facilitates distributed and multi-threaded programming for C++, Java, and Python. MADARA was originally developed as an agent-based middleware specifically for real-time, distributed artificial intelligence, but is now more general purpose for distributed timing, control, knowledge and reasoning, and quality-of-service. MADARA is composed of several tools and middleware, and the main entry point into the system is the Knowledge and Reasoning Language (KaRL) Engine, which provides a real-time scripting language for nanosecond execution times hooked into a flexible transport layer for distributed reasoning. The KaRL engine also supports object-oriented C++, Java, and Python programming through Containers, classes that provide abstractions and references for variable location within the KaRL Knowledge Base. This project is currently in process of being ported from http://madara.googlecode.com.

JPPF makes it easy to parallelize computationally intensive tasks and execute them on a Grid.

SQLREST enables access to a relational database as RESTful Web Service. Entities can be queried, created and modified using the HTTP methods GET, POST, PUT and DELETE.

QuickServer is an open source Java library/framework for quick creation of robust and multi-threaded, multi-client TCP server applications. With QuickServer one can just concentrate on just the application logic/protocol on hand.

Provides a remotely (or locally) scriptable JVM along with a perl & C client

OpenESM project to promote software development of enterprise systems management. Focus areas are (Performance and Availability, Configuration Management, Data Warehousing, Reporting and Correlation).

MOSREF provides a secure, portable and dynamic environment for the development, deployment and management of network and host security auditing tools.

Retrieve files from a remote computer using a PDA/Pocket PC running Windows Mobile. Can access remote computers regardless the geographical position. Can work under WiFi, GPRS or any other wireless networks.

Active Networking provides a framework in which executable code within data packets can execute upon intermediate network nodes. The goal of this research is to develop active networks that are capable of predicting their own behavior and to use this ca

Generic clustering/load-balancing platform (over a LAN or internet) using java based P2P Aorta workers that execute java "tasklets". Various tasklets can be implemented to solve fractals, process images, render webpages, crack RSA "brute force".

Note: There is a successor of AsyncWcfLib: https://github.com/steforster/Remact.Net AsyncWcfLib is a software library for distributed computing based on Microsoft WCF. AsyncWcfLib is a lightweight message bus bridging Windows and Linux by using the .NET Framework or Mono. It supports callback based asynchrony as well as the new async-await pattern available in .NET 4.5. AsyncWcfLib supports threadsafety through an actor based programming model. Actors are loosly coupled system units interacting by passing messages. Message objects are passed inside a process between actors running on different threads. Also, messages may be passed between actors running on different processes, hosts and operating systems. The library is designed for configuration free, asynchronous messaging. A router application is included. It discovers actors by their name on any linked host, even when host name resolution is not possible because of routing- or operating system limitations.

.Net and COM library for client/server communication over TCP/IP. Asynchronous non-blocking multithreaded execution.

Bionanny is a tool for Web Services providers. It allows to monitor other Web Services. It can intercept requests incoming from clients, pass it to the destination Web Service and log number of requests and elapsed time spend by services.

BitDHT is a LGPL'd general purpose C++ Distributed Hash Table library. It is designed to take hassle out over creating your own DHT. BitDHT is compatible with bitttorrent's DHT and can leverage this network to bootstrap your own personal DHT.

BlindEyes is an open-source distributed framework designed to allow the distribution and chaining together of code in many popular languages.

Borg = Mobile Multi agent system with support for strong migration, serialisation and location transparaent routing. Interpreter= prototype based. Compiles for macintosh, windows, linux, freebsd, solaris and palm.

Two way communication from any Excel, PowerPoint, Word application to Linux. The Brain is a custom TCP server, running under Linux, capable of accepting multiple connections from VBA objects and redistributing or storing the information in real-time.

CACANMS is an acronym for Computer Aided Campus Area Network Management System. The system consists of software components and a library of about 60 classes. It is divided into three types of subsystems which reside on different servers and communicate.

This project is meant to provide ISDN CAPI 2.0 services (like fax)over a TCP/IP based network. A server (Win32/Linux) can share his ISDN cards with Clients (Win32/Linux) in the LAN.
