{"product_id":"9781118601396","title":"Distibuted Systems: Design and Algorithms","description":"In today’s digital environment, distributed systems are increasingly present in a wide variety of environments, ranging from public software applications to critical systems.\u003cbr\u003e Distributed Systems introduces the underlying concepts, the associated design techniques and the related security issues.\u003cbr\u003e Distributed Systems: Design and Algorithms, is dedicated to engineers, students, and anyone familiar with algorithms and programming, who want to know more about distributed systems.\u003cbr\u003e These systems are characterized by: several components with one or more threads, possibly running on different processors; asynchronous communications with possible additional assumptions (reliability, order preserving, etc.); local views for every component and no shared data between components. This title presents distributed systems from a point of view dedicated to their design and their main principles: the main algorithms are described and placed in their application context, i.e. consistency management and the way they are used in distributed file-systems.","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47121620336880,"sku":"9781118601396","price":165.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781118601396_p0.jpg?v=1763694830","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781118601396","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
