Excerpt from The Design and Analysis of a Distributed Processing SystemThe design of a distributed operating system based on a small set of synchronous message passing primitives, send-receive-reply, is explored. A description of how the unix? Operating system can be extended by these primitives to support a local area network environment consisting of diskless workstations connected by Ethernet to remote file servers is given. A performance analysis of the consequences of having all files transferred remotely over the network is presented. It is concluded that the proposed distributed unix is competitive with traditional time-sharing operating systems.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
