Distributed System And Its Group Communications Design

In the future, according to the desire of computing speed and reliability, there will a desire to change the traditional architecture of computer. With the development of the Internet, a new dream occurs—distributed computing.During the past 10 years, there are many ideas towards distributed computing, researchers are now working on the design of the distributed computing hardware and software in order to explore the potential parallel and fault-tolerant capability.This paper revolves on the issue of distributed system architecture and coherent group communication. The author first analyses the shortages of the current distributed system, then cites some dominant examples of how the distributed concept is implemented. After the analysis of the system structure, the author promotes some good implementations. The next part focuses on the group communication, including theoretic analysis on basic structure, basic multicast, reliable multicast, sequence multicast, group member services, view...
