Integrating Distributed Algorithms into Distributed Systems

Integrating Distributed Algorithms into Distributed Systems

Distributed algorithms are often part of a larger distributed system Usually the properties of the algorithm are proven for the al gorithm in isolation Then it is not obvious how the algorithm behaves integrated into a larger system In this paper we exploit the simple observation that some actions of a distributed algorithm do not belong to the algorithm but are triggered by the environment If ...

Integrating Visualization Support into Distributed Computing Systems

Visualization andanimation tools may become extremely important aids in the understanding, verification, and performance tuning of parallel computations. Presently, however, the use of visualization has had only a limited use for enhancing parallel computation. We hypothesize that one of the primary reasons for the limited use of visualization tools in parallel program development is the diffic...

a framework for integrating distributed healthcare information systems

in the last two decades, the trend in healthcare information technology has been towards digital and multimedia concepts. the next generation of healthcare information systems will consist of a vast network of heterogeneous, autonomous and distributed imaging scanners, hospital information systems (his), medical information from clinical departments such as radiology information systems (ris), ...

Integrating Dependability Analysis into the Design of Distributed Systems 1

The increasing importance and criticality of computers in technical applications have spurred a demand on dependable computers. In these applications acceptance of the system is strongly innuenced by dependability aspects. Consideration of dependability has to be an integral part of system development and has to start at early phases in the design. This paper presents our approach for the integ...
