File Processing in a Distributed Environment

Abstract: This paper intends to demonstrate the processing of a file in a distributed environment using Remote Method Invocation. The processing will be in terms of splitting, merging and compression, decompression. By using this over a distributed system mainly distributes the functions needed to be performed by the client over the server. It overcomes the limitations of transferring larger files. It splits any file format as per user requirement and merges it without any loss of data. Similarly, it compresses any file format and also decompresses it. Checksum is provided to verify lossless splitting and merging of the file. Also, auto email facility is provided to email the processed file.

Keywords: split; merge; join; checksum; file processing; lossless; compress; decompress; email.
