Abstract
In a distributed metacomputing environment, facilities for the movement
of code from one server node to another are
highly desirable. Often movement of code to data is preferable to the
movement of data to code, particularly where the data
is large. In this paper we describe our `Code Server' or database of
Java byte code. We discuss design and implementation
issues and results of performance benchmarking we have undertaken as
well as performance for a practical image
processing example. We also discuss how our implementation addresses
issues such as name spaces, client-server
communication and distribution. Our results show that code serving
appears viable, but more work remains to identify a
suitable general database schema for describing codes.
