Introduction to Distributed Systems
11 CSE 380 Computer Operating SystemsInstructor: Insup LeeUniversity of PennsylvaniaFall 2003 Lecture Note: Distributed Systems2 Introduction to Distributed Systems Why do we develop Distributed Systems ? availability of powerful yet cheap microprocessors (PCs,workstations), continuing advances in communication technology, What is a Distributed system ? A Distributed system is a collection of independent computers thatappear to the users of the system as a single system . Examples: Network of workstations Distributed manufacturing system ( , automated assembly line) Network of branch office computers3 Distributed SystemsComparison of three kinds of multiple CPU systems4 Advantages of Distributed Systemsover Centralized Systems Economics: a collection of microprocessors offer a betterprice/performance than mainframes. Low price/performance ratio: costeffective way to increase computing power. Speed: a Distributed system may have more total computing powerthan a mainframe.
A distributed system is a collection of independent computers that appear to the users of the system as a single system. Examples: ... NSF Implementation 10 (True) Distributed Systems tightly-coupled software on loosely-coupled hardware provide …
