Abstract: Orca is an object-based distributed shared memory system that is designed for writing portable and efficient parallel programs. Orca hides the communication substrate from the programmer by providing an abstract communication model based on shared objects. Mutual exclusion and condition synchronization are cleanly integrated in the model. Orca has been implemented using a layered system, consisting of a compiler, a runtime system, and a virtual machine (Panda). To implement shared objects... (Update)

...passing, and RPC. With these components it implements the shared object semantics and many optimizations. The current run time system [2] implements a number of these components and relies on the underlying operating system for others. It is statically configurable in that it...

...optimizing the parallel programs is described. All of the programs we studied are written in the parallel programming language Orca [5, 8]. The Orca system we used is built on top of a virtual machine called Panda [9] implemented on the Amoeba distributed operating system [17,...
