Abstract

The CLuster Operating System (CLOS) is based on the asynchronous cluster concept. A very simple and small CLOS kernel with a fully machine independent interface provides CLOS with openness and portability. CLOS is intended as an object-oriented environment for the design and development of complex applications with internal parallelism particularly in advanced information systems.
