Much of recent work on computer systems has focused on providing transparent resource-sharing in a distributed computing environment. Many of these systems use the server-client model to provide access to data and services. As more distributed services are offered and the demand for sharing increases in these environments, efficient management and accessing schemes become crucial. Locating services makes name service a critical part of access management.This report describes some of the work in progress as part of the Universal Name Semantics (UNS) project at the University of Michigan. UNS was intended to explore issues involved in providing client programs with seamless naming of objects across heterogeneous name spaces. UNS is distinguished from other heterogeneous naming systems in its attempt to partially automate the translation process by exploiting abstract similarity between name spaces.
