Abstract: Amoeba is a capability-based distributed operating system designed
for high performance interactions between clients and servers using the
well-known RPC model. The paper starts out by describing the architecture
of the Amoeba system, which is typified by specialized components such as
workstations, several services, a processor pool, and gateways that connect
other Amoeba systems transparently over wide-area networks. Next the
RPC interface is described. The paper presents performance... (Update)

.... Interface Language Interfaces for object manipulation are specified in a notation, called the Amoeba Interface Language (AIL) [van Rossum, 1989], which resembles the notation for procedure headers in C with some extra syntax added. This allows automatic generation of client...
