A guestbook is now available. You can write your suggestions, councils and greetings.

08/03/2005 03:35:03 - stork-0.0.3 is out!

New core and library ready to use! The 0.0.3 version is incompatible with the previous ones.

01/03/2005 07:26:30 - New stork utilities

I have developed a powerful utility (storkbm) for the benchmark of a stork cluster performances and a graphical ront-end (storkbmgui) . New core and library are coming soon!.

25/02/2005 13:58:21 - Stork runs on MacOSX

Today I developed libstork library porting to MacOSX OS. MacOSX does not support System V system call for the message passing so only the semaphores will work. I am successful to make working Linux ppc (client) with Linux x86 (server).

07/02/2005 09:39:39 - stork on OpenBSD

Wow! Stork client runs on OpenBSD operating system!

22/01/2005 06:03:43 - First runs on Linux pcc

First run on Linux ppc are done with success. Thanks to mana.

12/01/2005 05:24:26 - Title of the thesis

In italian: "Studio e realizzazione di un sistema per la gestione distribuita di primitive di sincronizzazione e comunicazione di UNIX SystemV".

06/01/2005 04:15:26 - stork 0.0.2

stork 0.0.2 is ready with some fixes on libstork, storkctl and kernel modules. Some tests are done on ppc architecure, but for the different implementation of IPC structures, stork doesn't run.

04/01/2005 08:21:39 - Stork ready to download

Now you can download the first stork version.

03/01/2005 10:07:56 - Stork developing complete

The first version of stork is ready to publish. All the features completed!

30/12/2004 10:09:32 - Cryptographic module ready

Cryptographic module is now ready and working. Stork now creates a secure comunication channel between server and client through blowfish alogorithm. No more map file is needed, stork now bradcasts messages throgh the network.

29/12/2004 14:51:34 - First cryptographic experiments

First cryptographic experiments are done with success.

22/12/2004 03:33:59 - Message passing upgrading

Solved some problems with stork message passing packets. Upgrading stork message passing kernel daemon code.

29/11/2004 10:06:25 - Message passing completed

Message passing code is ready and tested. Now I will dedicate myself to clean up the code.

08/11/2004 10:02:09 - No more problems

No more problems with the double structure definition, now ipcs -s works fine.

05/11/2004 05:42:50 - Some problems

The double implementation of semid_ds structure in linux/sem.h e sys/sem.h causes some consistency problems.

25/10/2004 05:05:15 - parallel computation

I'm working on developing a little program that demonstrates the power of parallel computation...
f = sin(prime(x,y))

[x..y] will be distributed on the 
cluster as subset of "sliding windows" the stork cluster benefits will be: - max(f); - min(f); - Sum(f); - ...

25/10/2004 00:21:16 - new stork map!

New stork map version! The storkmap is now oriented to server description. The server role is selected through some switches.
# HOST          SEM     SHM     MESS
192.168.1.3     *       -       -
192.168.1.1     -       *       -
192.168.1.2     -       -       *
192.168.1.4     *       *       *

22/10/2004 06:47:16 - stork home page

This is the new stork home page style. The code is valid XHTML 1.1 and CSS.

22/10/2004 05:39:42 - stork map

This is an example of new stork map semantic:
# legend:
# s = semaphore manager
# m = shared memory manager
# p = message passing manager
# S = Shared memory and Semaphore manager
# M = Shared memory and Message passing manager
# P = message Passing and semaphore manager
# A = global manager

192.168.1.4	s
192.168.1.5	m
192.168.1.6	p

# 192.168.1.4	A

22/10/2004 02:00:57 - stork test

Stork implements distributed semaphores. Some tests are done with distributed and concurrent processes sharing the same (remote) sysV semaphore, writing an incremental value on shared NFS file.
