Abstract

See full text

An automatic distributed partitioning system ('ADPS') automatically detects location constraints on the placement of units of an application program in a distributed computing environment. From a programmer, the ADPS receives a list of operating system functions that access location-dependent resources. The ADPS analyzes the application program to detect units that call the listed operating system functions. If an application unit calls a listed operating system function, the ADPS notes a location constraint on that application unit. The ADPS insures that the location-constrained application unit resides on a computer with access to the location-dependent resource needed by the application unit.
