Abstract
Most distributed systems are characterized by distribution of both physical and logical features. The architecture of a distributed system is usually modular. Most distributed systems support a varying number of processing elements. The system hardware, software, data, user software and user data are distributed across the system. An arbitrary number of system and user processes can be executed on various machines in the system.Keywords
