Chapter 7. Project: The Token Ring
The projects of this chapter explore pipes, forks and redirection in the context of a ring of processes. Such a ring allows simple and interesting simulations of ring network topologies. The chapter also introduces fundamental ideas of distributed processing, including processor models, pipelining and parallel computation. Distributed algorithms such as leader election illustrate important implementation issues.
- Learn about ring-based network architectures
