Integrating Distributed Algorithms into Distributed Systems [PDF]

open access: possibleFundamenta Informaticae, 1999
A distributed algorithm is often used as a part of a larger distributed system. Usually, the properties of an algorithm are proven for the algorithm in isolation. Then, it is not obvious how the algorithm behaves when integrated into a larger system. In this paper, we present a simple technique which allows to derive properties of an algorithm which is

Distributed Treatment Systems

Water Environment Research, 2015
This section presents a review of the literature published in 2014 on topics relating to distributed treatment systems. This review is divided into the following sections with multiple subsections under each: constituent removal; treatment technologies; and planning and treatment system management.

Distributed Context-Aware Systems

Human–Computer Interaction, 2001
Currently, context-aware applications are defined as applications that react appropriately to information sensed in the environment, as opposed to applications that elaborate only information explicitly provided by users. Context is (implicitly or explicitly) thought of as a collection of features of the (physical or virtual) environment, which can ...

Dissipative distributed systems

Proceedings of the 39th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control (Cat. No.00CH37187), 2002
Deals with systems described by constant coefficient linear partial differential equations. We define dissipativity with respect to a quadratic differential form, i.e., a quadratic functional in the system variables and their partial derivatives. The main result states the equivalence of dissipativity and the existence of a storage function or of a ...

LIFO Distribution Systems

Journal of the Operational Research Society, 1979
The regional distribution problem for a perishable product is examined, under the important assumption that younger units are issued first (LIFO) to satisfy the demands of the customers at the locations. Optimal and approximately optimal allocation policies for two alternative distribution systems are derived.

Distributed Systems

2020
Abstract Chapter 5 considers distributed systems by their properties. The first section studies the classification of software systems, which is usually distinguished in centralized, decentralized and distributed systems. It studies the differences between these three major approaches, showing there is a rather multidimensional ...

Distributed Systems

Computer, 1985
Growth of distributed systems has attained unstoppable momentum. If we better understood how to think about, analyze, and design distributed systems, we could direct their implementation with more confidence.

Distributed Simulation Using Distributed Control Systems

1990 Eastern Multiconference. Record of Proceedings. The 23rd Annual Simulation Symposium, 1990
Modern process automation and control systems must be able to control discrete as well as continuous events. These events are sensed and controlled by distributed devices. Simulation is a necessity in order to design and tune the automatic control system.
