  • Functional and operational security system for open distributed environments 
    Muftic, S (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1996)
    The paper describes the design details and implementation results of the completely integrated, functional and operational security system, suitable for open distributed environments. Functionality means that security ...
  • A general building block for distributed system management 
    Putter, P; Roos, JD (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1992)
    This paper proposes a general building block for distributed systems. This building block is referred to as a generic distributed system entity (GDE). The purpose of the GDE is to create a generic entity which can be used ...
  • An implementation of Linda tuple space under the Helios operating system 
    Clayton, PG; Wentworth, EP; Wells, GC; de-Heer-Menlah, FK (1991)
    We discuss the implementation of Rhoda, our Linda-like Tuple Space server which runs under the Helios operating system. The approach analyses and partitions tuple space at compile time in order to reduce the run time ...
  • An implementation of Linda tuple space under the Helios operating system 
    Clayton, Peter G.; Wentworth, EP; Wells, GC; de-Heer-Menlah, FK (th African Institute of Computer Scientists and Information Technologists, 1992)
    We discuss the implementation of Rhoda, our Linda(i)-like Tuple Space server which runs under the Helios(ii) operating system. The approach analyses and partitions tuple space at compile time in order to reduce the run ...
  • A new general-purpose operating system 
    Venter, BH (1987)
    The current generation of widely-used, multi-user, general-purpose operating systems have evolved from versions that were designed when many of the issues that are important today were unimportant or not even thought of. ...
  • Parallel distributed objects' structure and their synchronization in an APPC environment 
    Kisimov, V; Da Silva, I (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1995)
    Over a period of a few hours, every computer participating in a distributed system has many unused resources. If these resources can be combined, a large amount of computational power can be generated. This paper offers ...
  • Placing processes in a transputer-based Linda programming environment 
    Clayton, Peter G.; de-Heer-Menlah, FK; Wentworth, EP (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1992)
    This paper presents a process placement algorithm, designed for use in a transputer-based implementation of the Linda programming environment. A static, heuristic approach is adopted, which takes cognisance of the special ...
  • Secure mobile nodes in federated databases 
    Olivier, MS (South African Computer Society (SAICSIT), 1997)
    Mobile computers pose special security risks since information contained on them can more easily be compromised. However, availability of information at the location where the mobile computer is to be used often outweighs ...
  • Selection of mobile agent systems based on mobility, communication and security aspects 
    Lall, Manoj (2009-08-25)
    The availability of numerous mobile agent systems with its own strengths and weaknesses poses a problem when deciding on a particular mobile agent system. In this dissertation, factors based on mobility, communication and ...
  • A technology reference model for client/server software development 
    Nienaber, R. C. (Rita Charlotte) (1996-06)
    In today's highly competitive global economy, information resources representing enterprise-wide information are essential to the survival of an organization. The development of and increase in the use of personal computers ...
  • Towards a model for teaching distributed computing in a distance-based educational environment 
    Le Roux, Petra (2009-02)
    Several technologies and languages exist for the development and implementation of distributed systems. Furthermore, several models for teaching computer programming and teaching programming in a distance-based educational ...
