Date: 16 Aug 1998 06:36:04 GMT Message-ID: <6r5ukk$hvi$1@encore.ece.cmu.edu> Hi, This is to announce that version 1.1 of DIPC (Distributed Inter-Process Communication) for Linux is available now. DIPC can be used to build and program clusters (multi-computers), and provides distributed program developers with semaphores, messages and transparent Distributed Shared Memory (DSM). The file dipc-1.1.tgz, containing the complete source code and documents, can be obtained by anomymous FTP from wallybox.cei.net, in directory /pub/dipc. Alternatively, it can be downloaded from sunsite.unc.edu, in /pub/Linux/system/network/distrib. DIPC's web pages are at http://wallybox.cei.net/dipc Here is DIPC's LSM file contents: Begin3 Title: DIPC (Distributed Inter-Process Communication) Version: 1.1 Entered-date: 03JUL98 Description: DIPC enables you to build and program distributed (multi-computer) systems very easily. It works by making System V IPC mechanisms (shared memories, semaphores and messages) network transparent.
