Distributed Operating Systems
Distributed operating systems have many aspects in common with centralized ones, but they also differ in certain ways. This paper is intended as an introduction to distributed operating systems, and especially to current university research about them. After a discussion of what constitutes a distributed operating system and how it is distinguished from a computer network, various key design issues are discussed. Then several examples of current research projects are examined in some detail, namely, the Cambridge Distributed Computing System, Amoeba, V, and Eden. © 1985, ACM. All rights reserved
High Thruput Nets for Petaflops Computing
rocessors busy, that is roughly one million 128 MB DRAMs filling a 2 meter cube. Memory access latency is roughly 60 ns (6,000 integer instruction times): 36 ns for signal flight at 1/2 light speed, 2 ns for thermal-shielding memory interfaces, 20 ns for DRAMs, and 2 ns for switching network delays. DRAM speed and physical size are the main factors in memory latency, which must be hidden. In RSFQ computing networks, bits are signaled by the absence or presence of single quanta of magnetic flux in tiny superconducting current loops.
