Abstract :
Vanguard is an experimental OS-level framework for distributed applications. Vanguard consists of an object-oriented protocol suite and object model, a set of programming language interfaces that can be used to access or implement Vanguard objects, and a modular, configurable kernel and implements object invocation. This paper outlines these three facets of Vanguard, focusing on the relationship between `system´ (Vanguard) objects and `language´ objects
