Introduction to Distributed Systems
Introduction:
Networks of computers are everywhere. The Internet is one, as are the many networks of which it is
composed. Mobile phone networks, corporate networks, factory networks, campus networks, home
networks, in-car networks – all of these, both separately and in combination, share the essential
characteristics that make them relevant subjects for study under the heading distributed systems.
Distributed systems are everywhere. The Internet enables users throughout the world to access its
services wherever they may be located. Each organization manages an intranet, which provides local
services and Internet services for local users and generally provides services to other users in the
Internet. Small distributed systems can be constructed from mobile computers and other small
computational devices that are attached to a wireless network.
Resource sharing is the main motivating factor for constructing distributed systems. Resources such as
printers, files, web pages or database records are managed by servers of the appropriate type. For
example, web servers manage web pages and other web resources. Resources are accessed by clients –
for example, the clients of web servers are generally called browsers.
We define a distributed system as one in which hardware or software components located at networked
computers communicate and coordinate their actions only by passing messages. This simple definition
covers the entire range of systems in which networked computers can usefully be deployed.
