  abstract=      "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."
