An Introduction to Distributed Algorithms takes up some of the main concepts and algorithms, ranging from basic to advanced techniques and applications, that underlie the programming of distributed-memory systems such as computer networks, networks of workstations, and multiprocessors. Written from the broad perspective of distributed-memory systems in general it includes topics such as algorithms for maximum flow, program debugging, and simulation that do not appear in more orthodox texts on distributed algorithms.
Moving from fundamentals to advances and applications, ten chapters—with exercises and bibliographic notes—cover a variety of topics. These include models of distributed computation, information propagation, leader election, distributed snapshots, network synchronization, self- stability, termination detection, deadlock detection, graph algorith
Editorial : "Barbosa makes the otherwise difficult subject of distributed algorithms very enjoyable and attractive to both students and researchers. The leading intuitive discussion of each algorithm is so very well organized and clearly written that a reader can, without the slightest effort, have a clear picture of it. An ideal textbook for an one-semester distributed algorithms course."
—Mamoru Maekawa, Professor, Graduate School of Information Systems, University of Electro-Communications, Tokyo
"The strength of this book is its focus on practical problems in distributed computing. The book is very accessible—-I would use it teaching a senior level course on distributed algorithms."
—David Nicol, Department of Computer Science, Dartmouth College
So she probably should sell the book with a band, or at least mention somewhere in the description that you can't use her method without a banddid I mention the book's description says you can do the exercises anywhere, anytime? Not without a resistance band, you can't!. I'm so glad I took the chance and bought this. Pictured Twincam Fat Boy and Road King is listed as an Evolution powered bike (?) A Heritage Softail is called an Electra Glide, even though in the same lines the softail suspention is mentioned (?) The 80 CID Shovelhead has 10 cooling fins on the cylinder instead of 9. This is not a book about naval warfare per se; it is a book about ship design among the different belligerents. The concept behind this is that if you're stuck ruminating over a regret, then you need full spectrum forgiveness to truly be free to learn and move on. Excellent. I loaded it in, started it playing
