Paper Abstract:
|
This paper presents an Asynchronous Message Passing System (AMPS) that was designed and implemented for a distributed programming language called LIPS. AMPS does not use any message buffers like other systems and is based on a simple architecture and interfaces. Experiments with AMPS have proved that the system is robust and deadlocks are avoidable. In terms of reliability, there is no loss of data and the delay due to lack of message buffers are minimal and acceptable. Even though it was originally intended for LIPS, AMPS can be customised to go with other message passing languages. |
