We propose an alternative characterisation of object-based distributed systems in terms of algebraic structures and topological spaces. Some examples are given in order to attest the adequacy of this approach to the subject. We also illustrate a method of transference of results from these mathematical theories that can further contribute to the advancement of distributed systems theory.

The initial step in the management of penetrating abdominal injuries and of blunt abdominal injuries in cases when nonoperative treatment is contraindicated or has failed is exploratory laparotomy [see 7:6 Operative Exposure of Abdominal Injuries and Closure of the Abdomen]. Visualization of the right hemiliver [see Figure 1] is hindered by the posterior attachments and by the right lower costa...

Since most of the concepts and areas of research relevant to this thesis are related to fundamental data management issues (abstraction and representation) an appropriate start for this background analysis is to explain these fundamental issues. In the general case, the concepts of abstraction and representation are the means for us to perceive and interact with data in the most suitable manner...
