Abstract The paper is a preliminary report on the design of a framework, called Dv, for building interactive distributed visualizations on computational grids. The framework is based on a form of mobile object, called an active frame, that consists of applicationdata and a program that manipulates the data. The system provides a flexible framework for building distributed applications that are performance-portable in the presence of heterogeneous resources and that adapt to dynamic changes in the status of system resources such as processor cycles and network bandwidth.
