Symmetry and similarity in distributed systems

Ralph E. Johnson, Fred B. Schneider • ACM Symposium on Principles of Distributed Computing (PODC) (1985)

Abstract: Similarity is introduced as a model-independent characterization of symmetry. It can be used to decide when a concurrent system has a solution to the selection problem. It can also be used to compare different models of parallel c...

Distributed Systems

Jared Dean • Wiley eBooks (2014)

Distributed systems have become a central part of big data. The systems are part of two subgroups: distributed databases such as Teradata or distributed file systems like Hadoop. Breakthroughs in technology have reduced costs in computing a...

Dynamic Thermal Management for Distributed Systems

Andreas Weißel, Frank Bellosa • Repository KITopen (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) (2004)

In modern data centers, the impact on the thermal properties by increased scale and power densities is enormous and poses new challenges on the designers of both computing as well as cooling systems. Controltheoretic techniques have proven ...

Distributed Systems

Vivek S Kale • Auerbach Publications eBooks (2017)

This chapter addresses the issues involved in distributed databases, where a database is stored on more than one computer. It provides an introduction to parallel and distributed computing as a foundation for the better understanding of clo...

Distributed Systems

Vivek S Kale • CRC Press eBooks (2018)

The origins of big data technologies come from database systems and distributed systems as well as data mining and machine learning algorithms that can process these vast amounts of data to extract the necessary knowledge. This chapter addr...

Distributed Systems

Ulrich Matter • Chapman & Hall/CRC eBooks (2023)

When we connect several computers in a network to jointly process large amounts of data, such a computing system is commonly referred to as a “distributed system”. From a technical standpoint the key difference between a distributed system ...

Distributed systems

Jos Marlowe, Doug Lea, Malcolm Atkinson • Encyclopedia of Computer Science (2003)

Nearly all large software systems are necessarily distributed. For example, enterprise-wide business systems must support multiple users running common applications across different sites. A distributed system encompasses these applications...

Distributed Systems

John A. Hamilton, David A. Nash, Udo W. Pooch • CRC Press eBooks (2020)

Multiple processor systems may be divided into two general categories: parallel processors (multiprocessors) and distributed systems (multicomputers). The distributed simulations, that is, simulations implemented over distributed systems. P...

Fault Tolerance Mechanisms in Distributed Systems

Arif Sarı, Murat Akkaya • International Journal of Communications Network and System Sciences (2015)

The use of technology has increased vastly and today computer systems are interconnected via different communication medium. The use of distributed systems in our day to day activities has solely improved with data distributions. This is be...

FAULT-DIAGNOSIS IN FULLY DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS

Jon G. Kuhl, Sudhakar M. Reddy • IEEE International Symposium on Fault-Tolerant Computing (2005)

The problem of diagnosis of failures, at the system level, in large, truly distributed networks of processing elements is considered. A model proposed earlier, in which nodes of the network perform tests upon certain neighboring nodes and p...

The timed asynchronous distributed system model

Flaviu Cristian, Christof W. Fetzer • IEEE International Symposium on Fault-Tolerant Computing (2002)

We propose a formal definition for the timed asynchronous distributed system model and we describe extensive measurements of actual message and process scheduling delays and hardware clock drifts that confirm that this model adequately desc...
