Linda Description

Widely studied distributed computing environment, centered around the notion of a tuple space A tuple space is a bag (also called a multi-set) of tuples. A tuple is an ordered, typed chunk of data. Tuple spaces exist independently of processes in the system, and the data placed into a tuple space also exist independently. PyLinda is a simple implementation of a linda system, however it also includes several of the more recently proposed extensions to Linda in the form of garbage collection, multiple tuple spaces, bulk tuple operations and sane non-blocking primitives. Requirements: · Python 2.3 or later What's New in This Release: Bug Fixes: · The method used to determine whether to use unix domain sockets or TCP/IP sockets has been replaced. · Install script changed to install documentaton in the standard location. · Various minor fixes. New Features: · Client-side programs can now use multiple threads to access to the Linda system. · Added a 'uts' alias for the universal tuplespace. · Added a disconnect method which allows processes and threads to disconnect from the Linda network.
