In the landscape of modern computer science, distributed systems form the backbone of almost everything we do—from scrolling through social media to executing complex cloud-based simulations. One of the most enduring academic resources for understanding this field is "Distributed Computing: Principles and Applications" by M.L. Liu.

End-of-Chapter Materials: Includes summaries and exercise sets that range from analytical problems to hands-on programming tasks.

• Heterogeneity: How different hardware and software components communicate.
• Scalability: designing systems that grow without breaking.
• Failure Handling: Building systems that survive when parts of the network crash.
