A new approach to structuring distributed applications using hierarchical worlds
EW 4: Proceedings of the 4th workshop on ACM SIGOPS European workshopPages 1–4https://doi.org/10.1145/504136.504186In this position paper, we briefly introduce a new communication model. Next, we argue why certain decisions were taken and compare our model to some existing approaches.

Designing application software in wide area network settings
EW 4: Proceedings of the 4th workshop on ACM SIGOPS European workshopPages 1–5https://doi.org/10.1145/504136.504174Recent progress in methodologies for developing robust local area network software has not been matched by similar results for wide-area settings. Our work considers the design of application software spanning multiple local area environments. For ...
