Distributed. net and its volunteers broke a 64-bit RC5 key in several years, using about seventy thousand ( mostly home ) computers.

Distributed hash tables ( DHTs ) are a class of decentralized distributed systems that provide a lookup service similar to a hash table: ( key, value ) pairs are stored in the DHT, and any participating node can efficiently retrieve the value associated with a given key.

Distributed. net has brute-forced RC5 messages encrypted with 56-bit and 64-bit keys, and is working on cracking a 72-bit key ; as of August 2012, 2. 489 % of the keyspace has been searched.

Distributed generation, also called on-site generation, dispersed generation, embedded generation, decentralized generation, decentralized energy or distributed energy, generates electricity from many small energy sources.

Distributed generation allows collection of energy from many sources and may give lower environmental impacts and improved security of supply.

Distributed generation plants are mass-produced, small, and less site-specific.

Distributed generation reduces the amount of energy lost in transmitting electricity because the electricity is generated very near where it is used, perhaps even in the same building.

Distributed energy resource ( DER ) systems are small-scale power generation technologies ( typically in the range of 3 kW to 10, 000 kW ) used to provide an alternative to or an enhancement of the traditional electric power system.

Distributed control systems ( DCSs ) are dedicated systems used to control manufacturing processes that are continuous or batch-oriented, such as oil refining, petrochemicals, central station power generation, fertilizers, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage manufacturing, cement production, steelmaking, and papermaking.

In 1976, after the system was deployed at PARC, Metcalfe and Boggs published a seminal paper, " Ethernet: Distributed Packet-Switching For Local Computer Networks.

Multiversion concurrency control is described in some detail in sections 4. 3 and 5. 5 of the 1981 paper " Concurrency Control in Distributed Database Systems " by Philip Bernstein and Nathan Goodman — then employed by the Computer Corporation of America.

# The Distributed conflict serializability property in its general form is difficult to achieve efficiently, but it is achieved efficiently via its special case Distributed CO: Each local component ( e. g., a local DBMS ) needs both to provide some form of CO, and enforce a special vote ordering strategy for the Two-phase commit protocol ( 2PC: utilized to commit distributed transactions ).

The term ' Distributed Power ' has been specifically coined to convey the generic concept of removing some of the motive power of a train from its head-end and distributing it within or throughout the length of the train to reduce coupler forces ( and, when competently operated ; in-train dynamics ) and permit the operation of longer, heavier trains.

On some SSI systems this can even include shared memory ( can be emulated with Software Distributed shared memory ).

The show bought control of a botnet of some 22, 000 infected computers ( for " a few thousand dollars ") from a Russian hacker, and used it to send spam to an email address set up for the experiment and to perform a Distributed Denial of Service ( DDoS ) attack on a website setup by Prev-X ( an internet security company that provided technical support for the show ).

Distributed in the temperate forests of Tasmania, New Zealand, southern Chile, with some species extending into the tropical highlands of Africa and the Americas.

Distributed processing attacks were used, successfully in some cases, against the D2-MAC / EuroCrypt system used in Europe during the 1990s.

Many of Todhunter's poems are available online, and some of his works are being processed by Distributed Proofreaders.

Distributed with some versions of Programmer's Workbench UNIX circa 1975-1977, it was a modified ( and generally constrained to be upward-compatible ) version of the Thompson shell with additional features to increase usability for programming, and was maintained by John Mashey and various others ( Dick Haight, Alan Glasser ).

Distributed algorithms such as resource synchronization often depend on some method of ordering events to function.

In the UK work on the Experimental Packet Switched system circa 1973, the need to define so called higher level protocols above the HDLC link level communications protocol and the content of an NCC ( UK ) publication ' Why Distributed Computing ' resulting from considerable research into future configurations for computer systems resulted in the UK presenting the case for an International Standards Committee to cover this area at the ISO meeting in Sydney in March 1977.

Distributed downloading protocols in general provide redundancy against system problems, reduces dependence on the original distributor and provides sources for the file which are generally transient and therefore harder to trace by those who would block distribution compared to the situation provided by limiting availability of the file to a fixed host machine ( or even several ).
