Abstract
Distributed operating systems and distributed system environments are the two major streams of achieving distributed processing. Because of the difference in the design philosophies, they present different feat ures to end users. This paper analyses and compares the design objecti ves, system architectures and implementation techniques of the two typ es of systems. It also discusses their different features and their im pacts on computing communities.
