DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS: Concepts and Design


This fifth edition of our textbook appears at a time when the Internet and the Web
continue to grow and have an impact on every aspect of our society. For example, the
introductory chapter of the book notes their impact on application areas as diverse as
finance and commerce, arts and entertainment and the emergence of the information
society more generally. It also highlights the very demanding requirements of
application domains such as web search and multiplayer online games. From a
distributed systems perspective, these developments are placing substantial new
demands on the underlying system infrastructure in terms of the range of applications
and the workloads and system sizes supported by many modern systems. Important
trends include the increasing diversity and ubiquity of networking technologies
(including the increasing importance of wireless networks), the inherent integration of
mobile and ubiquitous computing elements into the distributed systems infrastructure
