Other Stuff (As time permits) • Threads
Other Stuff (As time permits) • Threads • Other C/S environments Raw Sockets IPv6 UNIX Domain Sockets CORBA COM / DCOM NFS
Motivation for Distributed Processing • Computing costs • Computing Power • Computer networking Capabilities • Application Availability Requirements • Multi-vendor Environment Proliferating
Client Server Evolution • Host Based Processing • Dumb Terminals • Master - Slave Processing • “Intelligent” Terminals (field validation, etc) • Cluster Controllers • Client - Server Processing • Peer-to-Peer Processing
Client / Server Advantages • Leverage Desktop Computing Power • Move Processing Closer to Data Source
Client / Server Advantages • Leverage Desktop Computing Power • Move Processing Closer to Data Source • Facilitates Leveraging GUI Experience • Common Interface can be used for Multiple Services • Encourages Open Systems
Distributed Computing Environment • Developed under Open Software Foundation (OSF)
Distributed Computing Environment • Developed under Open Software Foundation (OSF) • Major Components: • Distributed File System • Directory Service • Remote Procedure Calls • Threads Services • Time Services
Client Server Database Apps • Layered Model • Application • Presentation (GUI, etc.) • Business Logic (if, then, else...) • Database Logic (SQL) • Database Management System (Oracle, etc.) • Database
Communication SystemsFunctions • Naming and Addressing • Segmentation • Blocking • Flow Control • Prioritizing • Error Control
Concurrency in C/S • Multiple actions (processes) executing in parallel • Primarily a Server side issue • Linkage to multiple clients • Also used on Client side • separate blocking events from non-blocking events
Threads and Processes • Process: • A program in execution • Includes context • Includes at least 1 thread • Thread • Lightweight process • A flow of execution • Operates within the context of a single process
Summary • Course Background • Course structure • SCE support facilities • Client / Server Introduction • Environment Evolution • Distributed Computing • Multi-threading / multi-processing
