| Abstract |
|
The problems collaborating with others across the
network are apparent to anyone who has tried doing it.
That being the case, we should attempt to create an
environment that doesn’t have those issues. One approach
is to make it appear to people and programs
that there is only one computer in the world. In building
such a system we’ll have to solve problems of scalable
performance, naming, security, discovery, and
manageability. If we’re to succeed in hiding the
boundaries between machines, the solutions we come
up with will have to be part of a coherent architecture.
