  • Abstract
    The Eden project is a five year experiment in designing, building, and using an "integrated distributed" computing system. We are attempting to combine the benefits of integration and distribution by supporting an object based style of programming on top of a node machine/local network hardware base. Our experimental hypothesis is that such an architecture will provide an environment conducive to building distributed applications.
