    • A virtual heap for a process executing within a virtual machine is described. In one embodiment, the virtual persistent heap may allow the running of an application on a physical heap that is smaller than may otherwise be required. As an example, the virtual persistent heap may be an order of magnitude larger than the physical, in-memory heap. This feature is important for small consumer and appliance devices, as these devices may have a limited amount of memory. In one embodiment, the virtual heap may be maintained on non-volatile memory storage external to the device running the virtual machine, and portions of the heap for the current execution state of the process may be cached in and out of a “physical” heap resident in local memory on the device. For example, the device may connect to a server on the Internet, and the server may provide non-volatile storage space for the virtual heap. In another embodiment, the external storage for the virtual persistent heap may reside on a non-volatile storage attached to the device, for example, a Flash card or hard disk drive. In one embodiment of the virtual heap, the entire heap for a process may be made persistent. The virtual persistent heap may enable the checkpointing of the state of the computation of a virtual machine, including processes executing within the virtual machine, to a persistent storage such as a disk or flash device for future resumption of the computation from the checkpoint. The Virtual Persistent Heap also may enable the migration of the virtual machine computation states, and thus the migration of executing processes, from one machine to another. The saved state of the virtual machine heap may also provide the ability to restart the virtual machine after a system crash or shutdown to the last saved persistent state, and to restart a process that was running within the virtual machine prior to the system crash or shutdown to a checkpointed state of the process stored in the virtual persistent heap. This persistent feature is important for small consumer and appliance devices, as these appliances may be shutdown and restarted often.

    • A service discovery protocol may allow clients to discover services on a proximity basis. A service device that provides one or more computing services may support a proximity communication link. A client device may form a proximity communication link with the service device. The client device may directly request from the service device a document that describes an interface to access a service provided by the service device. The service device may provide the document directly to the client device over proximity communication link. The document may include a service advertisement for the service, and the service advertisement may include a schema specifying an interface to at least a portion the service. The client device may use the information from the document to access the service. The client device may support a transport connection in addition to the proximity communication link, and the client device may make the document available to other devices over the transport connection. Thus, the client device may provide a bridge from the transport connection to the proximity communication link so that other devices from a distributed computing environment may access the service.
    • 服务发现协议可以允许客户端在邻近的基础上发现服务。 提供一个或多个计算服务的服务设备可以支持邻近通信链路。 客户端设备可以与服务设备形成邻近通信链路。 客户端设备可以直接从服务设备请求描述访问由服务设备提供的服务的接口的文档。 服务设备可以通过邻近通信链路将文档直接提供给客户端设备。 文档可以包括用于服务的服务广告,并且服务广告可以包括指定至少部分服务的接口的模式。 客户端设备可以使用来自文档的信息来访问服务。 客户端设备除了邻近通信链路之外还可以支持传输连接,并且客户端设备可以通过传输连接使文档可用于其​​他设备。 因此,客户端设备可以提供从传输连接到邻近通信链路的网桥,使得来自分布式计算环境的其他设备可以访问该服务。

    • A secure interface between clients and services in a distributed computing environment is described. Method gates may provide an interface to remotely invoke functions of a service. A method gate may be generated from an advertisement that may include definitions for one or more messages for remotely invoking functions of the service. A client may generate messages containing representations of method calls. The service may invoke functions that correspond to the set of messages. A method gate on the service may unmarshal the message and invoke the function. The client may receive the results of the function directly. Alternatively, the results may be stored, an advertisement to the results may be provided, and a gate may be generated to access the results. Message gates may perform the sending and receiving of the messages between the client and service. In one embodiment, functions of the service may be computer programming language (e.g. Java) methods. In one embodiment, a message including a representation of a method call may be generated when no actual method call was made. In one embodiment, a method call may be transformed into messages that may be sent to the service; the service may not know that the messages were generated from a method call. In one embodiment, a service may transform messages requesting functions into method calls; the client may not know that the service is invoking methods to perform the functions. A credential may be embedded in messages and used for message authentication on the service.
    • 描述了在分布式计算环境中的客户端和服务之间的安全接口。 方法门可以提供用于远程调用服务功能的接口。 可以从可以包括用于远程调用服务功能的一个或多个消息的定义的广告生成方法门。 客户端可以生成包含方法调用表示的消息。 该服务可以调用与该组消息相对应的功能。 该服务上的一个方法门可以解组消息并调用该功能。 客户端可以直接接收功能的结果。 或者,可以存储结果,可以提供对结果的广告,并且可以生成门以访问结果。 消息门可以执行客户端和服务之间的消息的发送和接收。 在一个实施例中,服务的功能可以是计算机编程语言(例如Java)方法。 在一个实施例中,当不进行实际的方法调用时,可以生成包括方法调用的表示的消息。 在一个实施例中,方法调用可以被转换成可以被发送到服务的消息; 该服务可能不知道消息是从方法调用生成的。 在一个实施例中,服务可以将请求功能的消息转换为方法调用; 客户端可能不知道该服务正在调用执行功能的方法。 证书可能嵌入到消息中,并用于服务上的消息认证。

    • A caching mechanism for a virtual persistent heap is described. A feature of a virtual persistent heap is the method used to cache portions of the virtual persistent heap into the physical heap. The caching mechanism may be effective with small consumer and appliance devices that typically have a small amount of memory and that may be using flash devices as persistent storage. In the caching mechanism, the virtual persistent heap may be divided into cache lines. A cache line is the smallest amount of virtual persistent heap space that can be loaded or flushed at one time. Caching in and caching out operations are used to load cache lines into the heap or to flush dirty cache lines into the store. Different cache line sizes may be used for different regions of the heap. Translation between a virtual persistent heap address and the heap may be simplified by the caching mechanism. All references may be kept in one address space, the virtual persistent heap address space. The address translation is therefore simplified, and may require no swizzling of virtual references into in-memory heap references when manipulating objects in the heap.
    • 描述了虚拟持久堆的缓存机制。 虚拟持久堆栈的一个特性是用于将虚拟持久堆栈的部分缓存到物理堆中的方法。 缓存机制对于通常具有少量存储器并且可能将闪存设备用作持久存储器的小型消费者和设备设备可能是有效的。 在缓存机制中,虚拟持久堆可以分为高速缓存行。 缓存行是可以一次加载或刷新的最小量的虚拟持久堆空间。 缓存和缓存操作用于将缓存行加载到堆中或将脏缓存行刷新到存储中。 不同的缓存行大小可以用于堆的不同区域。 通过缓存机制可以简化虚拟持久堆地址和堆之间的转换。 所有引用可以保存在一个地址空间中,即虚拟持久堆地址空间。 因此,地址转换被简化,并且在操作堆中的对象时可能不需要将虚拟引用转换为内存中的堆引用。

    • A distributed computing environment may employ spaces to provide a rendezvous mechanism that brokers services or content to clients. Services may advertise themselves in a space. Clients may find the advertisements in a space and use the information from an advertisement to access a service using a messaging mechanism. A space discovery protocol may be provided to find a space. A client may instantiate a discovery service to locate spaces. A listener agent may be configured associated with one or more spaces to listen for discovery requests. The listener agent may listen on various network interfaces, and may receive requests from clients looking for a space(s). The listener agent then responds with the service advertisement(s) or URIs for the service advertisements of the requested space(s). In one embodiment, the listener agent may be separate from the space and its functionality orthogonal to the functionality of the space.
    • 分布式计算环境可以使用空格来提供将客户服务或内容经纪人的会合机制。 服务可以在一个空间中做广告。 客户可以在空间中找到广告,并且使用来自广告的信息使用消息传递机制来访问服务。 可以提供空间发现协议以找到空间。 客户端可以实例化发现服务以查找空格。 可以将侦听器代理配置为与一个或多个空间相关联以监听发现请求。 侦听代理可以在各种网络接口上侦听,并且可以接收来自寻找空间的客户端的请求。 收听者代理然后响应所请求的空间的服务广告的服务广告或URI。 在一个实施例中,侦听器代理可以与空间及其与空间的功能正交的功能分开。
