Distributed computing in the workstation environment

Published:01 September 1993Publication History

ABSTRACT

Exploiting unused processor time in workstation environments can result in large performance gains in user applications. A parallel each operator is shown which implements client-server based distributed processing. A time-consuming algorithm is sped up by using idle workstations in a local area network as APL servers.
