The Saguaro distributed operating system and related projects
Gregory R. Andrews, Richard D. Schlichting · 1986
Our research in distributed systems has concentrated primarily on various aspects of the Saguaro distributed operating system.This has included not only design and development of the operating system itself, but also investigations into related areas.These related projects have included the redesign of the SR distributed programming language, and the development of the MLP system for constructing distributed, mixed language program~.These projects are related to Saguaro in that SR is the language being used for the implementation of Saguaro, while MLP is based on the type system developed for use in Saguaro.Both SR ~ MLP have been implemented.Prototypes of the Saguaro file system and user interface have also been implemented; implementation of the full Saguaro system is underway on a network of Sun workstations.
