2. System Model: Distributed System
2.9. Summary
Three types of system models
- Physical models: capture the hardware composition of a system in terms of computers and other devices and their interconnecting network;
- Architecture models: defines the components of the system, the way they interact, and the way the are deployed in a network of computers
- client-server models (many variants)
- peer processes (P2P)
- spontaneous networks (mobility)
- Fundamental models: formal description of the properties that are common to all architecture models
- interaction models
- failure models
- security models
