distributed system
在 A Brief Introduction to Distributed Systems 的介绍中，分布式系统被定义为:
A distributed system is a collection of autonomous computing elements that appears to its users as a single coherent system.
图灵奖获得者 Leslie Lamport 将分布式系统描述为:
one in which the failure of a computer you did not even know existed can render your own computer unusable.
