We have been investigating an end system architecture to support networking with quality of service guarantees. For user level protocol code in our architecture to access the network, we have designed a kernelαuser interface. The interface targets three areas for improvement: reduced copying, reduce

As the first special issue of ~~~er~c~i~g with Computers, we present a set of papers from the new discipline of computer-supported co-operative work (CSCW); a young research area incorporating a set of loosely connected concerns surrounding the support of group work. In keeping with the journal's co
In recent years parallel computing systems based on a collection of a modest number (generally in the range of 16 to 1024) relatively high powered processors (such as those used in scientific workstations) have become commercially available. The current systems software for these computing systems r
Since the 1980s, various groups have been constructing systems that support a concept known as orthogonal persistence. These systems support objects whose lifetime is independent of the context in which they were created. The benefits of such systems include greater run-time efficiency, strong seman
