What is Distribution system?
• A distributed system is a collection of autonomous
computers linked by a computer network that appears
to the user as a single computer
Why distributed system?
•
•
•
•
Resource sharing
Computation speedup
Reliability
In event of system resource failure, shift its
processing load to another similar resource
Categories
• Multiple computer systems collaborating to
deliver a single application
• Multiple applications collaborating together as a
system
Disadvantages of Distributed Systems
• Difficulties of developing distributed software
• Networking Problems
• Security problems
GOALS
Design Goals
•
•
•
•
Efficiency
Flexibility
Consistency
Robustness
Why Operating System Services?
• OS provides an environment for the executions
of the programs.
• Services are provided for the convenience of the
programmer , to make the programming task
easier.
• Services provided differ from one operating
system to another operating system.
Services
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Program Execution
I/O Operations
File-system manipulation
Communications
Error Detection
Resource Allocation
Accounting
Protection
Communication Network Protocols
• For a network architecture, rules and standards must be set up to
govern the communication. Communication Protocols are sets of
rules that regulate the exchange of messages to reliable and orderly
flow of information.
• Two most popular network protocol suites:
OSI (Open Systems Interconnection) from ISO (International
standards organization)
TCP/IP(Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) from
the DoD (U..S Department of Defense)

Openness
Security
Reliability and fault tolerance
Scalability
Concurrency
Achieving Transparency[A. S. Tanenbaum]
Distributed Computing Environment
• DCE provides a complete Distributed Computing Environment
infrastructure.
• It provides security services to protect and control access to data,
name services that make it easy to find distributed resources, and a
highly scalable model for organizing widely scattered users,
services, and data.
• DCE runs on all major computing platforms and is designed to
support distributed applications in heterogeneous hardware and
software environments. DCE is a key technology in three of today's
most important areas of computing: security, the World Wide Web,
and distributed objects.
Latest Work: Asian computers join forces
against Avian Flu
• Computers can simulate a large number of chemical compounds and
measure their ability to fit snugly into the chemical coating of a
virus, thereby blocking its ability to function properly
• “Avian Flu DC2 Refinement” is the latest attack on Avian Flu using
Grid Computing
• The grid technology allowed 125 processor cores — the heart of every
computer — to join forces even though they were thousands of miles apart,
All the computing jobs were completed within four weeks. A total of
1,111 CPU-days were used, which is equivalent to running a single
computer for over three years. Over 160,000 files generated a large volume
of data, about 12.8 gigabytes, which was collated in a database.
•
Now the community is hardly working to find drugs for virus behind
dengue fever.

Future Work:A distributed intrusion detection
system for wireless ad hoc networks
• In multi-hop mobile ad hoc network (MANET), mobile nodes
communicate with each other forming a cooperative
radio network.
• Security remains a major challenge for these networks due to
their features of open medium, dynamically changing
topologies, reliance on cooperative algorithm.
• Most of the currently existing intrusion detection algorithms
designed for these networks are insecure, inefficient, and have high
rates of false positives.
• So, In order to provide the security to manet, a new approach has
been proposing to bring out the complementary relationship
between key distribution and intrusion detection for developing an
intrusion detection protocol for ad hoc networks, which will work
even in the failure of nodes.
