Description

This book introduces readers to selected issues in distributed systems, and primarily focuses on principles, not on technical details. Though the systems discussed are based on existing (von Neumann) computer architectures, the book also touches on emerging processing paradigms. Uniquely, it approaches system components not only as static constructs, but also “in action,” exploring the different states they pass through. The author’s teaching experience shows that newcomers to the field, students and even IT professionals can far more readily grasp the essence of distributed algorithmic structures in action, than on the basis of static descriptions.

Author Biography:

The author obtained the MSc, PhD and habilitation degrees from the University of Warsaw, where he was a professor of informatics at the Faculty of Mathematics, Informatics and Mechanics. He spent some years in other universities, like Carnegie-Mellon, Oxford, Ben-Gurion, Humboldt, as visiting professor or a research fellow. Now he is a professor of the Vistula University and professor emeritus of the University of Warsaw. His work encompasses formal and programming languages, compilers, theory of computation, parallel and distributed processing.
