The Aleph Toolkit Home Page
The Aleph Toolkit is a collection of
Javatm packages that support distributed
computations that run across networks of heterogeneous workstations. Aleph
provides the ability to start threads on remote processors, to communicate by
message-passing, by ordered multicast, and by shared objects (with transparent
synchronization and caching).
We are releasing this version of the Aleph toolkit in the hope that it might
be useful to others interested in platform-independent object-based distributed
computing. We encourage comments, complaints, bug fixes, and enhancements.
