Abstract: This paper reports on the Horus project, which provides an unusually flexible group communication model to application-developers. This flexibility extends to system interfaces, the properties provided by a protocol stack, and even the configuration of Horus itself, which can run in user space, in a operating system kernel or microkernel, or be split between them. Horus is used through an interface proxy. Proxies can support toolkits that use groups explicitly, or hide groups beneath parallel... (Update)
