Abstract
In this short paper, it is argued that the notion of process, augmented
with transactional properties, can be a very powerful tool for
designing and developing distributed applications over clusters of PCs
and workstations.
This is done by first defining the type of distributed applications
being targeted, showing how the notion of process supports such
applications, and finally pointing out the role transaction must play
to complement the notion of process. The paper concludes with an
overview of how these systems may evolve.
