    This document appears to be an exam for a distributed systems course, consisting of multiple choice and short answer questions. It covers several topics in distributed systems including: - The functions of middleware and the roles of client and server stubs. - Mobile code and classes of omission and arbitrary failures. - Inter-process communication over TCP and external data representation/marshalling. - How UFID helps with flat file service and problems with logical clocks solved by vector clocks. - A comparison of flat file service and directory service operations. - The architecture of SUN NFS. - One-copy update semantics and motivations for name services. - CORBA RMI.
