puting
Principles, Algorithms, and Systems
puting deals with all forms puting, information access,
and information exchange across multiple processing platforms connected
works. Design of puting systems is -
plex task. It requires a solid understanding of the design issues and an
in-depth understanding of the theoretical and practical aspects of their solu-
tions. prehensive textbook covers the fundamental principles and
models underlying the theory, algorithms, and systems aspects of distributed
computing.
Broad and detailed coverage of the theory is balanced with practical
systems-related problems such as mutual exclusion, deadlock detection,
authentication, and failure recovery. Algorithms are carefully selected, lucidly
presented, and described plex proofs. Simple explanations and
illustrations are used to elucidate the algorithms. Emerging topics of signif-
icant impact, such as peer-to-works work security, are also
covered.
With state-of-the-art algorithms, numerous illustrations, examples, and
homework problems, this textbook is invaluable for advanced undergraduate
and graduate students of electrical puter engineering puter
science. Practitioners in working and works will also find
this a valuable resource.
Ajay D. Kshemkalyani is an Associate Professor in the Department -
puter Science, at the University of Illinois at Chicago. He was awarded his
. puter and Information Science in 1991 from The Ohio State
University. Before moving to academia, he spent several years working on
works at IBM Research Triangle Park. In 1999, he received the
National Science Foundation’s CAREER Award. He is a Senior Member of
the IEEE, and his principal areas of research include puting,
algorithms, works, and concurrent systems. He currently serves
on the editorial board works.
