Distributed Systems - Study Notes
Unit I: Introduction to Distributed Systems (Part 1)
A distributed system is a collection of independent computers that appears to users as a single
coherent system. Characteristics include resource sharing, scalability, transparency, concurrency,
fault tolerance, and heterogeneity. Types include client-server systems, peer-to-peer systems,
cluster computing, grid computing, and cloud computing. Advantages include reliability,
performance, and resource sharing. Challenges include synchronization, security, communication
delays, and failure handling.

Unit II: Communication in Distributed Systems
(Part 2)
Communication is achieved through message passing, remote procedure calls, and remote method
invocation. Concepts include sockets, middleware, communication protocols, and network
transparency. RPC allows a program to execute procedures on a remote machine as if they were
local.

procedures.
