Assignment 1
Due Feb. 25
You are going to build a distributed system that performs three different tasks. First, it will return the current time on the remote machine. Second, it will return the current status of the remote machine. That is the output of the command “uptime” on UNIX. Third, translates English words into Spanish. The remote machine holds the English-Spanish translation. The local (or client) machine will ask for translation of individual words. For this assignment, we will start with the words in the table below. Store the words in a file, so the list can be easily expanded. The list is will not grow beyond 5,331 words.

English	Spanish
athlete	atleta
budget	presupuesto
mother	madre
motive	motivo
rabbit	conejo
rain	lluvia

2. Implement the same system as above, but use RMI to communicate between the client program and the server program.
