Abstract

COIN (connected object interface) is an integrated environment for general-purpose distributed programming. It is a model for large-scale software construction, with special emphasis on concurrent and distributed systems. The major design goal of this model was to integrate design, implementation, and visualization of distributed applications. Hence, the COIN model is based on the ideas of object-oriented programming, which has proved to be a practical way of making software easier to design, implement, and reuse. An overview of the COIN model is given, and the basic concepts of the programming tools, are outlined
