An algorithm for resource location in a loosely linked distributed computer system
K. Lunn, Keith H. Bennett · ACM SIGOPS Operating Systems Review · 1981
This paper introduces an algorithm for locating resources in a distributed computer system which is low on processing requirements and on message-passing demand. The algorithm is intended for a loosely linked system with a message-passing mechanism within and across nodes. Such a system might well evolve as an integration of machines via a local area network.
