Description:

Linda is an widely studied distributed computing environment, centered
around the notion of a tuple space. A tuple space is a bag (also
called a multi-set) of tuples. A tuple is an ordered, typed chunk of
data. Tuple spaces exist independently of processes in the system, and
the data placed into a tuple space also exist independently. See
"Generative communication in Linda" (1985) and "Multiple tuple spaces
in Linda" both by David Gelernter for more information on Linda.

PyLinda is a simple implementation of a linda system, however it also
includes several of the more recently proposed extensions to Linda in
the form of multiple tuple spaces, garbage collection, sane
non-blocking primitives and bulk tuple operations.

This package contains pylinda libraries, which are necessary for running
pylinda servers and developing client programs.
