4.9/5 (23808 ratings)

Description:To understand the power of distributed systems, it is necessary to understand their inherent limitations: what problems cannot be solved in particular systems, or without sufficient resources (such as time or space). This book presents key techniques for proving such impossibility results and applies them to a variety of different problems in a variety of different system models. Insights gained from these results are highlighted, aspects of a problem that make it difficult are isolated, features of an architecture that make it inadequate for solving certain problems efficiently are identified, and different system models are compared. Table of Contents: Acknowledgments / Introduction / Indistinguishability / Shifting and Scaling / Scenario Arguments / Information Theory Arguments / Covering Arguments / Valency Arguments / Combinatorial Arguments / Reductions and Simulations / Bibliography / Authors' BiographiesWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging. And by having access to our ebooks online or by storing it on your computer, you have convenient answers with Impossibility Results for Distributed Computing. To get started finding Impossibility Results for Distributed Computing, you are right to find our website which has a comprehensive collection of manuals listed.
