Time: Friday, February 10, 1989, 12:05 --- Place: GB 220
Amoeba is a distributed operating system being developed
at the Vrije University in Amsterdam, and more recently,
Centrum voor Wiskude en Informatica and the University of
Cambridge. Sparse capabilities are used for addressing and
protection in the request-response oriented inter-processor
communication protocol. The kernel supports multiple threads
of control per address space on multiprocessors and
uniprocessors. This talk will examine the IPC mechanism,
fileserver design, and kernel multiprocessor support, with an
emphasis on performance issues.
