=title=
A Java Toolkit for Teaching Distributed Algorithms
=abstract=
We present a toolkit for developing and visualizing distributed 
algorithms in Java. This toolkit consists of a Java class library with a 
simple programming interface that allows to develop distributed 
algorithms in a message passing model. The resulting programs may be 
executed in standalone mode using a Java interpreter or embedded as 
applets into HTML documents and executed by a Web browser. The toolkit 
has been applied in various university courses and is freely available.
