Abstract

The problem cf distributing an application between two processors has been investigated by studying an interactive graphics application that is divided between a time-shared host computer and a dedicated satellite system. The division of labor in the application is determined by a network flow assignment algorithm. The effect of variation in availability of the host computer on the distribution of the application is also studied. In particular, host availability is an important factor in determining the task distribution. As host availability decreased, procedures miqrate from the host to the satellite.
