- contents of this FTP directory:
-
- acme.tar:
- Source code for the ACME server, its client library,
- and some sample applications.
- ACME is an audio/video I/O server that runs on Sparcstations.
-
- acme_data.tar:
- Two files of monochrome video data, to be used with ACME.
-
- acme_bin:
- ACME Sparcstation binaries: the server and three applications.
- Statically linked (no shared libraries).
- This is for people who want to try out ACME without installing
- all the required software (InterViews, gcc, etc.)
-
- aero.tar:
- AERO (Asynchronous Execution of Remote Operations)
- is a C-based system for parallel distributed programming.
-
- cmfs.ps
- Postscript file for "Real-Time Disk Storage and Retrieval
- of Digital Audio/Video Data"
- (to appear in ACM TOCS; also UC Berkeley TR UCB/CSD 91/646, Aug. 1991).
- Describes a file system with real-time stream semantics.
-
- cmfs.tar.Z
- An implementation of the real-time file system described in the above paper.
- Can be used either as a simulator or (using a SCSI disk under UNIX)
- a real file system (sort of).
-
- gdd.shar:
- GDD (Grid Data Display) is a set of programs for displaying
- grid data as contour maps or 3-D surface plots.
-
- idcm.ps.Z:
- The paper "Integrated Continuous Media: A Framework Based on Mach,
- X11, and TCP/IP", UCB TR 90/566, March 1990.
- (an early ``goals'' paper; the ideas were later realized in ACME and SRP.)
-
- meta-sched.ps
- Postscript file for "Meta-Scheduling for Continuous Media"
- (UC Berkeley TR UCB/CSD 90/599, Oct. 1991).
- A long theoretical treatment of the "CM-resource model",
- a scheme for resource reservation and scheduling for
- continuous media in distributed systems.
-
- mood.tar:
- MOOD (Musical Object-Oriented Dialect)
- is a C++ class library for generating music using

- schemes for reducing the amount of user/kernel interactions
- in handling AV data in UNIX-type systems.
-
- rtag.tar:
- RTAG (Real-Time Asynchronous Grammars) is a system for
- generating protocol implementations from formal specifications.
- WARNING: this software is undocumented and probably unusable.
-
