The Distributed ProcessBase system is a variant on this environment, designed for a distributed context. The three distributed object cache implementations that are described in this document form the basis for experimentation into DMOS-based distributed garbage collectors. The three implementations differ in their approach to coherency maintenance over objects in the cache. Analysis includes the messaging cost, dereference costs and addressing complexity for each implementation.Report002007605520080418094017
