From mobile phones to the Internet, our lives are increasingly dependent on distributed systems that seamlessly and transparently link computers and other devices. This book comprehensively covers the design principles and practices of distributed systems, along with their exciting new developments, using numerous new case studies to illustrate system design and development methods. The previous edition has been adopted by many top universities worldwide, such as the University of Edinburgh, University of Illinois, Carnegie Mellon University, University of Southern California, Texas A&M University, University of Toronto, and Rochester Institute of Technology, as teaching materials for advanced operating systems, computer networks, and distributed systems courses. New content in the 4th Edition:
● Three entirely new chapters introducing peer-to-peer systems, Web services, and mobile and ubiquitous computing systems.
● Over 25 case studies of common systems. Eight of them are entirely new, including studies on grids, Cooltown, Bluetooth, and WiFi/WEP protocols.
● Comprehensive updates on XML and its security extensions, as well as the AES encryption standard and security design for ubiquitous systems.
