Project Gutenberg is also closely affiliated with Distributed Proofreaders, an Internet-based community for proofreading scanned texts.

Charles Franks also founded Distributed Proofreaders ( DP ) in 2000, which allowed the proofreading of scanned texts to be distributed among many volunteers over the Internet.

Distributed Proofreaders was founded by Charles Franks in 2000 as an independent site to assist Project Gutenberg.

Distributed Proofreaders became an official Project Gutenberg site in 2002.

On 8 November 2002, Distributed Proofreaders was slashdotted, and more than 4, 000 new members joined in one day, causing an influx of new proofreaders and software developers, which helped to greatly increase the quantity and quality of e-text production.

Distributed Proofreaders posted their 5, 000th text to Project Gutenberg in October 2004, in March 2007, the 10, 000th DP-produced e-text was posted to Project Gutenberg, in May 2009, the 15, 000th DP-produced e-text was posted to Project Gutenberg, and in April 2011, the 20, 000th DP-produced e-text was posted to Project Gutenberg.

On 31 July 2006, the Distributed Proofreaders Foundation was formed to provide Distributed Proofreaders with its own legal entity and not-for-profit status.

In January 2004, Distributed Proofreaders Europe started, hosted by Project Rastko.

On 1 December 2007, Distributed Proofreaders Canada launched to support the production of e-books for Project Gutenberg Canada and take advantage of shorter Canadian copyright terms.

Although it was established by members of the original Distributed Proofreaders site, it is a separate entity.

Project Rastko also hosts the European version of Distributed Proofreaders, which intends to supply Project Gutenberg with public domain texts in European languages.

Project Rastko is organising a coalition of European e-libraries for the purpose of collecting public domain works, aiming to eventually have a node of Distributed Proofreaders in each European country.

Distributed Proofreaders, which prepares texts for Project Gutenberg, is considering adoption of reStructuredText as a basic format from which other ebook formats could be generated.

Distributed denial of service ( DDoS ) attacks are common, where a large number of compromised hosts ( commonly referred to as " zombie computers ", used as part of a botnet with, for example ; a worm, trojan horse, or backdoor exploit to control them.

Distributed computing is a field of computer science that studies distributed systems.

An example of an advanced DBMS is Distributed Data Base Management System ( DDBMS ), a collection of data which logically belong to the same system but are spread out over the sites of the computer network.

At the forefront of the standards groups is the Department of Defense's Advanced Distributed Learning initiative with its SCORM standards.

* Distributed search engine, a search engine where there is no central server

The availability of industrial Distributed Temperature Sensing ( DTS ) systems that measure in real time temperatures all along the cable is a first step in monitoring the transmission system capacity.

Bandwidth-saturating floods rely on the attacker having higher bandwidth available than the victim ; a common way of achieving this today is via Distributed Denial of Service, employing a botnet.

Distributed switching is an architecture in which multiple processor-controlled switching units are distributed.

Distributed switching is often used in telephone networks, though it is often called host-remote switching.

Distributed. net is actively searching for the optimal order-27 ruler ; in May 2009, the expected time to discover it was estimated at about seven years.

“ Distributed ” or “ grid ” computing in general is a special type of parallel computing that relies on complete computers ( with onboard CPUs, storage, power supplies, network interfaces, etc.

" The novel is also notable for a number of incidental descriptions of other cults or groups, such as the Reformed Distributed Republic, which in contrast to the more elaborate " phyles " impose a minimal social protocol.

* Stephenson's short story " The Great Simoleon Caper " which refers to both the Metaverse seen in Snow Crash and the First Distributed Republic seen in The Diamond Age ( another short story which fits in the Diamond Age milieu and even shares a character is " Excerpt from the Third and Last Volume of Tribes of the Pacific Coast ").

Portable Distributed Objects, or PDO, is a programming API for creating object-oriented code that can be executed remotely on a network of computers.

In addition to the OS X platform, there is GNUstep, which has its own implementation of Distributed Objects.

Transparent Distributed Processing, or TDP, is the name that the QNX operating system uses to refer to its network distributed architecture.

The proprietary networking architecture for Honeywell Bull mainframes is Distributed Systems Architecture ( DSA ).
