whitepaper Emergent (Mis)Behavior Vs. Complex Software Systems2005-12-22 Hewlett-Packard
  Complex systems often behave in unexpected ways that are not easily predictable from the behavior of their components; this is known as emergent behavior. As software systems grow in complexity, interconnectedness, and geographic distribution, one will increasingly face unwanted emergent behavior. Unpredictable software systems are hard to debug and hard to manage. One needs better tools and methods for anticipating, detecting, diagnosing, and ameliorating emergent misbehavior. These tools and methods will require research into the causes and nature of emergent misbehavior in software systems.

whitepaper BEA WebLogic Server 9.02005-09-01 BEA Systems
  This document is focused toward business decision makers as much as enterprise architects. Digging deeper will reward you with greater insight into how the WebLogic Server 9.0 can help you solve your specific mission-critical business issues. As you read further, this paper explains WebLogic Server's position in the enterprise and in a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA).

whitepaper Successfully managing geographically distributed development2004-08-01 IBM
  Today, companies large and small are turning to distributed development as a way to be more responsive to customersÂ’ demands for high-quality software applications that are delivered when they want and need them. This paper outlines some key challenges that companies face when moving to a distributed development environment. Real-life customer stories illustrate how companies have used IBM Rational SCM products to overcome these challenges — while at the same time helping them to lower development costs, increase staff productivity, decrease time-to-market and improve the quality of their products.

whitepaper Service-Oriented Modeling and Architecture2004-11-09 IBM
  Learn about service-oriented modeling and architecture; the key activities that you need for the analysis and design required to build a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA). The author stresses the importance of addressing the techniques required for the identification, specification and realization of services, their flows and composition, as well as the enterprise-scale components needed to realize and ensure the quality of services required of a SOA.

whitepaper Super-Peer Architectures for Distributed Computing2003-07-08 Fiorano Software
  Over the period of time, the architecture of software systems has evolved, typically following the evolution of hardware systems from mainframes in the 70Â’s, client/server systems in the 80Â’s and early 90Â’s, thin-clients in the late 90Â’s and more recent peer-to-peer distributed systems at the start of this decade. This whitepaper compares and evaluate various software infrastructure topologies with respect to characteristics like scalability, performance, reliability, and manageability, among others, with a view towards determining the best overall topology for general-purpose distributed computing and the solution of a wide range of business problems.

whitepaper DCOM Technical Overview1996-01-01 Microsoft
  Microsoft's distributed COM (DCOM) extends the Component Object Model (COM) to support communication among objects on different computers-on a LAN, a WAN, or even the Internet. With DCOM, your application can be distributed at locations that make the most sense to your customer and to the application. Because DCOM is an evolution of COM, the world's leading component technology, one can leverage their existing investment in COM-based applications, components, tools, and knowledge to move into the world of standards-based distributed computing.

whitepaper Quality of Service in Distributed Systems0000-00-00 Columbia University Department of Computer Science
  Delivering quality of service (QOS) guarantees in distributed systems is fundamentally an end-to-end issue, that is, from application-to-application. Consider, for example, the remote access and distribution of audio and video content from a web server: in the distributed system platform, quality of service assurances should apply to the complete flow of information from the remote server across the network to the point of delivery and playout.

Generally, this requires end-to-end admission testing and resource reservation in the first instance, followed by careful co-ordination of disk and thread scheduling and flow control in the end-systems, packet/cell scheduling and congestion control in the network and, finally, active end-to-end monitoring and maintenance of the delivered quality of service.

whitepaper Performance Analysis of Distributed Data Base Systems0000-00-00 Regents of the University of California
  In this paper we briefly present the design of a distributed relational data base system. Then, we discuss experimental observations of the performance of that system executing both short and long commands. Conclusions are also drawn concerning metrics that distributed query processing heuristics should attempt to minimize. Lastly, we comment on architectures which appear viable for distributed data base applications.
