In today's digital environment, distributed systems areincreasingly present in a wide variety of environments, rangingfrom public software applications to critical systems.
Distributed Systems introduces the underlying concepts, theassociated design techniques and the related security issues.
Distributed Systems: Design and Algorithms, is dedicated toengineers, students, and anyone familiar with algorithms andprogramming, who want to know more about distributed systems.
These systems are characterized by: several components with one ormore threads, possibly running on different processors;asynchronous communications with possible additional assumptions(reliability, order preserving, etc.); local views for everycomponent and no shared data between components. This titlepresents distributed systems from a point of view dedicated totheir design and their main principles: the main algorithms aredescribed and placed in their application context, i.e. consistencymanagement and the way they are used in distributed file-systems.
