Abstract

Support for co-operative distributed applications is an important direction of computer systems research involving developments in operating systems as well as in programming languages and databases. One emerging model for the support of co-operative distributed applications is that of a distributed shared universe organized as a set of objects shared by concurrent activities. The paper describes experience in the design, implementation, and use of an object-oriented distributed system (Guide) intended to support the above model
