Abstract

HIPPOS, an object-oriented parallel processing system developed at Tsinghua University, addresses the low performance of object-oriented parallel systems, the difficulty of programming and the portability of applications. The parallel object model is supported by using object-oriented technology in HIPPOS. It classifies the active objects into independent objects and server objects in order to make it easier for the programmer to describe the parallel algorithms and to accomplish high performance. In this paper, the authors describe the parallel object model in detail
