Abstract Everyone know how communication technology is getting advanced and to make it more advanced we need to develop powerful desktop workstation as the users has increased the demand for sophisticated application that fastly change the computing from the older model to a new distributed system. This paper is basically concerned with the distributed system and its network which have vast descriptions of every step used in the distributed system and how it works. A distributed system is a software that is a collection of dependent network communication and computational nodes. To support this distributed system we need to change the environment such as the tools in services which used to support the development ,design ,destroyed and management of applications and others because if the technology is based on a distributed system that needs the same environment to access efficiently. This paper contains all the information regarding the distributed system and its networking that will help you to know each and everything about the distribution system, its following networks and working parts which it takes. Keywords: Networking, Computing, Processing, Distribution

1. Introduction data and resources. A computer scientist builds a computer Distributing System and Networking provides the network using hardware (e.g., Routers, switches, cables, and infrastructure for communication, computation and access points) and software (e.g., Operating systems, business storage involving a potentially large number of people applications and utility software). Computer Networks are around the world looking for the same kind of information, often defined by their Geographical Location. For example, a hardware devices, and software processes. Issues of concern LAN (local area network) connects computers in a very small mainly include scalability, performance, functionality, and area or working space, like an office building, whereas a WAN manageability. Distributed networking is usually used in (wide area network) can connect computers across cities or distributed computing, on the network system over which say continents.

Computer Net work Types nodes (computers), and are mostly dependent upon each As networking evolved over the years and its needs other. The goal of a distributed network is to share resources evolved, so did the computer network types that serve those globally, typically to accomplish a singular or similarly needs.9-10 Here are some common and widely used computer visual goals. Basically, a distributed networking system is network types: composed of threads, agents, processes, and distributed objects evenly.1-5 A. LAN (local area network) A LAN connects computers over a very short distance 2. What is a Computer Net work? about few hundred meters only as in a building, allowing A computer network comprises two or more computers them to share data, files, and resources. For example, LANs that are connected either by cables (wired) or Wi-Fi (wireless) may connect computers in an office building, school, or with the purpose of transmitting, exchanging, or sharing hospital. Typically, LANs are privately owned and managed.

The following are some common terms to understand The technology in the recent years has evolved into when discussing computer networking: an always-on environment of mobile, social, and cloud applications where programs are often accessed and used A.

Systems Distributed Systems. One of the first challenges during a distributed system is in scheduling jobs and their component processes. 8. Reliability Computing power could be quite large, but it's always finite, Distributed systems create a reliable experience for and therefore the distributed system must decide which jobs end users because they believe hundreds or thousands of should be scheduled to run where and when, and therefore relatively inexpensive computers to speak with each other the relative priority of these jobs.
