Primes

• Bottleneck

  • This sourceBiblio reference (never cited in body).

• Concurrency
  • The clarifying force is to make coordination requirements checkable and to turn implicit temporal assumptions into explicit guards

    This sourceCanonical distributed-systems text covering synchronization, coordination, consistency, and replication. SUPPORTS marker 052 (clarity: turning implicit temporal assumptions into explicit guards) and marker 054 (independent agents overlapping in time without corrupting each other's work). DOI/link is the archive.org copy. NOTE: the embedded annotation in the source ('load balancing as distributing divisible work ... distribution vs provisioning') is a mismatched carry-over from another prime's use of this text; the book nonetheless supports the general coordination/clarity claims on 052/054.

• Idempotence
  • .

    This sourceChapters on messaging and at-least-once delivery establish idempotency in message-passing protocols.

• Load Balancing
  • Its essence is spreading demand over parallel resources according to a routing rule, exploiting the fact that aggregate capacity is only useful if demand can be steered toward wherever spare capacity currently exists.

    This sourceCanonical distributed-systems textbook: develops load balancing as distributing divisible work across a pool of interchangeable units behind one logical endpoint, treating the pool as a single elastic resource and distinguishing distribution (shape of the load) from provisioning (its mean).

• Scalability
  • The architectural strategies that transform the bottleneck: replication, partitioning (sharding), caching, asynchronous processing, load balancing, or workflow restructuring

Domain-specific

• Bully algorithm
  • … transfers from A canonical instance directly demonstrates that under the synchronous timing and reliable-communication assumptions the highest nonfailed process is eventually uniquely announced coordinator. to An applied instance preserves the same invariant under changed scale, notation, or implementation..
