Abstract

Run-time systems are critical to the implementation of concurrent object oriented programming languages. The paper describes a concurrent object oriented programming language, Balinda C++, running on a distributed memory system and its run-time implementation. The run-time system is built on the top of the Nexus communication library. The tuplespace is the key to Balinda C++. A distributed tuplespace model is presented to improve data locality. Some experiments have been done to verify our model. The results indicate that our model is effective at improving system performance
