Beschreibung
Distributed Computing is rapidly becoming the principal computing paradigm in diverse areas of computing, communication, and control. Processor clusters, local and wide area networks, and the information highway evolved a new kind of problems which can be solved with distributed algorithms.
In this textbook a variety of distributed algorithms are presented independently of particular programming languages or hardware, using the graphically suggestive technique of Petri nets which is both easy to comprehend intuitively and formally rigorous. By means of temporal logic the author provides surprisingly simple yet powerful correctness proofs for the algorithms.
The scope of the book ranges from distributed control and synchronization of two sites up to algorithms on any kind of networks. Numerous examples show that description and analysis of distributed algorithms in this framework are intuitive and technically transparent.

Distributed Computing is becoming more and more important for the application and organization of computing systems This book uses a Petri net and temporal logic approach to present a variety of distributed algorithms and prove their correctness in the simplest possible way The author is one of the world's leading authorities on Petri nets
Distributed algorithms, essential to networks of all kinds, are presented using the highly intuitive and technically elegant Petri net technique in this text for students and practitioners. A variety of distributed algorithms are presented, and proven correct using temporal logic.
