Research

I am building live distributed objects, a new programming model and a platform, in which instances of distributed protocols are modeled as components with an object-oriented look and feel that can be composed in a type-safe manner to build complex distributed applications using a simple, intuitive drag and drop interface. The platform is powered by a suite of scalable reliable multicast protocols.

This following 8-minute streaming video demonstrates a prototype of the live distributed objects platform in action. The platform is publicly available for free. Early versions of it are starting to appear the the live distributed objects website. The recording has been created by Jong Hoon Ahnn, a student working with us on integrating live objects with applications used in corporate setting, such as databases or office documents. Jong is looking for a great graduate program, so if you're a CS professor, take a while to look at his application. The voice over the video belongs to Ken Birman, my advisor.

If you can't access this video or the playback isn't smooth, try these externally hosted versions: higher quality (700 kbps) or lower quality (100 kbps).

This streaming video demonstrates integration with spreadsheets and databases that Jong Hoon Ahnn is working on.
