Abstract
The authors discuss a paradigm for structuring distributed operating systems, the potential and implications this paradigm has for users, and research directions for the future. They describe Clouds, a general-purpose operating system for distributed environments. It is based on an object-thread model adapted from object-oriented programming.<>
