%X This paper describes the implementation of an extended
   version of Linda in Java. The extensions have been made with
   a view to increasing the efficiency of the underlying
   communication mechanisms and the flexibility with which data
   may be accessed, particularly in the area of distributed
   multimedia applications. The system is compared with two
   other recent implementations of Linda for Java: JavaSpaces
   from Sun Microsystems, and TSpaces from IBM. The comparison
   is performed both qualitatively, comparing and contrasting
   the features of the systems, and quantitatively, using a
   simple communication benchmark program and a ray\-tracing
   program to assess the performance and scalability of the
   different systems for networks of workstations.
