Abstract

AbstractThe steps necessary to extend the UNIXUNIX is a trademark of Bell Laboratories. time sharing system to a network which includes a central processor and a set of satellite processors is described. Software interfaces permit a program in the satellite processor to behave as if it were running in the central processor. Tasks are executed in parallel in several processors resulting in improved reliability and response time. The economics of such systems becomes more feasible with the reduction of the cost of CPUs and memories and the increasing demand for dedicated local computers.
