Abstract
The Clouds project is research directed towards producing a reliable distributed computing system. The initial goal of the project is to produce a kernel which provides a reliable environment with which a distributed operating system can be built. The Clouds kernel consists of a set of replicated sub-kernals, each of which runs on a machine in the Clouds system. Each sub-kernel is responsible for the management of resources on its machine; the sub-kernal components communicate to provide the cooperation necessary to meld the various machines into one kernel.
