文摘John McCarthy proposed the vision of utility computing in 1961.Barbara Liskov proposed a related vision of abstraction-powered Internet Computer in 2009.This position paper outlines a distributed computing model towards realizing the McCarthy-Liskov vision.This“hypertasking”model aims at extending the“hypermedia”model of the World Wide Web into a model of World Wide Computing Utility,turning an information web into a computing web.The hypertasking model contains three abstractions,including global resource space,stored-computer architecture,and monadic hypermedia.A prototype architecture and experimental evidence are presented to support this perspective.
