Abstract
The DASH project which is concerned with the logical design of
large-scale multimedia systems and in particular, with the design of
operating system software for its nodes is discussed. The system
requirements include support for multimedia communication (this may
require real-time scheduling techniques throughout the system) and a
naming and security architecture that scales to global size and that
accommodates mutually distrustful groups and subgroups. A prototype
distributed system design to address these requirements is being built.
The author describes the goals of the DASH project and provides a sketch
of the DASH design, with an emphasis on its network communication
architecture
