Primes¶
- Bottleneck
- Listed in the references but not attached to a specific claim.
- Concurrency
- Concurrency separates the elapsed time of the entire system from the execution time of any single process. Supports responsiveness: concurrent systems can be interrupted, context-switched, or reordered without forcing the entire system to wait on a single slow operation. Requires explicit coordination: mutexes, semaphores, condition variables, barriers, and other synchronization primitives make coordination visible and analyzable. Scales reasoning: as the number of concurrent agents grows, reasoning about arbitrary interleavings becomes intractable; concurrency forces architects to identify truly independent regions and narrow synchronization interfaces
This sourceStandard distributed-systems text; treats decomposition into concurrent components and narrowing synchronization interfaces. SUPPORTS marker 053 (scaling reasoning: identifying truly independent regions and narrow synchronization interfaces). Link is the official book site. NOTE: the 5th edition author list is 'Coulouris, Dollimore, Kindberg, & Blair' (Blair added; Dollimore/Kindberg order differs from the prime's 'Coulouris, Kindberg, & Dollimore'). Minor citation-fix.
