Internet and Distributed Computing Advancements: Theoretical Frameworks and Practical Applications

Internet and Distributed Computing Advancements: Theoretical Frameworks and Practical Applications

As software and computer hardware grows in complexity, networks have grown to match. The increasing scale, complexity, heterogeneity, and dynamism of communication networks, resources, and applications has made distributed computing systems brittle, unmanageable, and insecure.

The chapters provided within this collection offer a holistic approach for the development of systems that can adapt themselves to meet requirements of performance, fault tolerance, reliability, security, and Quality of Service (QoS) without manual intervention.
