Abstract
Support for the programming of distributed computing systems has been a primary focus of distributed computing research. It has been recognized that programming a distributed system is more difficult than programming a centralized system. Many of the functions, such as task mapping, interprocess communication, remote invocation, synchronization, and reconfiguration, are very difficult to program. Tools that support parallel and distributed programming can greatly simplify such programming tasks.
