erlang part 2

In this lab we'll investigate erlang in a little more depth - this time studying an application of Erlang developed by Richard Ramsden as part of a 2012 directed studies.

In lectures we discussed some of the issues and approaches relating to distributed rate limiting, and its interaction with load balancing.

The links below outline the problem and an initial solution Richard worked on, plus prototype code in erlang to evaluate the solution.
