Networks of computers running Berkeley UNIX allow users to program and run multiple-process applications that execute concurrently on several machines. We present solutions to the problems of process tracking, administration, and control in this networked computing environment. We have designed and implemented a personal process manager for an enhanced Berkeley UNIX system that provides the user with much needed process management and process control capabilities not found elsewhere.

"This book focuses on network management and traffic engineering for Internet and distributed computing technologies, as well as present emerging technology trends and advanced platforms"--Provided by publisher.

Need help reengineering key management processes for a distributed computing environment? Want to know what management integration alternatives are currently available? How to embed products from IBM and Hewlett-Packard into customized solutions? Are expert systems worth the cost?
