Abstract

A brief description is given of how the issues of access to (possibly remote) services and cooperative distributed computing are treated in GUIDE (Grenoble universities integrated distributed environment), a distributed operating system under development at Grenoble on a local network of workstations. An overview of the project is given, and the computational model of the system is described. Remote computation is discussed. The current implementation status and experience with the system are examined
