  1. Name server works correctly (10 points)

    On receiving a client request, the name server should supply either the list of servers currently active and their addresses OR the address of a specific server as requested by the client. Implementation of either one of the schemes is acceptable.


  2. Server registers with the name server (10 points)

    This is done before the server exits normally.


  3. Server de-registers with the name server (5 points)

    This is done when the server exits normally.


  4. Client robustness (10 points)

    Client programs should not crash if they are trying to connect to a server that has crashed. Also, they should not wait indefinitely for a request to be serviced. i.e., there should be a time-out for the requests that are sent out by the clients.


  5. Servers are concurrent (10 points)

    A server should be able to handle 2 client requests simultaneously.


  6. Results (20 points)

    The ease with which the programs can be executed - use of scripts, well defined user interfaces, etc.
