- In addition to comp.os.research there is comp.client-server.
- comp.client-server discusses the "client server approach to distributed
- computing". Actually everybody on the group seems to have a different
- definition of client-server, but there have been some interesting
- discussions of synchronous versus asynchronous communication on there.
-
- Are there any other groups where distributed computing comes up?
