Release Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Designing distributed computing systems is a complex process requiring a solid
understanding of the design problems and the theoretical and practical aspects
of their solutions. This comprehensive textbook covers the fundamental
principles and models underlying the theory, algorithms and systems aspects of
distributed computing. Broad and detailed coverage of the theory is balanced
with practical systems-related issues such as mutual exclusion, deadlock
detection, authentication, and failure recovery. Algorithms are carefully
selected, lucidly presented, and described without complex proofs. Simple
explanations and illustrations are used to elucidate the algorithms. Important
emerging topics such as peer-to-peer networks and network security are also
considered. With state-of-the-art algorithms, numerous illustrations, examples
and homework problems, this textbook is suitable for advanced undergraduate and
graduate students of electrical and computer engineering and computer science.
Practitioners in data networking and sensor networks will also find this a
valuable resource.
