 The synchronization of highly concurrent applications under heavy load requires fast, real-time process information - sometimes faster than standard Unix tools can provide it. Therefore, we designed and developed a fully decentralized and distributed process management system for the CineSat application.  The synchronization of highly concurrent applications under heavy load requires fast, real-time process information - sometimes faster than standard Unix tools can provide it.

-Major achievement:   
 This new secure task management is independent from the Linux flavor and operating system versions, benefits from multi-processor architectures, and can easily manage the negotiation and priorities between hundreds of processes fired up at the same time. This new secure task management is independent from the Linux flavor and operating system versions, benefits from multi-processor architectures, and can easily manage the negotiation and priorities between hundreds of processes fired up at the same time.
