Therefore, effective ways and procedures to deal with DCS in both levels: at the
level of element—all zones introduced, and at the level of system. Solutions should
be for sure scale-independent as DCS growth now in fact is uncontrollable. Dealing
with all zones and dynamically applied NFR of PRE-smartness might provide a
smooth exchange or transfer of information along the DCS as a whole. This is
crucial, as our lives became too dependent on the communication devices and
networks.
Distributed computing trend is shifting toward distributed databases, this
approach which uses distributable large-scale tasks exploiting connected computer
systems (networks) is called cloud computing [8, 9].
DCS to be robust, resilient and effective requires tuning or optimization of
network topology and its backbones—nodes—read computers as elements of this
network. These tuning should be performed at the application software, system
software, and topology level. In addition, the computer´s internal structure should
be set the most efficient way to execute requested operation and supported
dynamically during operation.
There was no substantial progress in this area, instead, there were a considerable
investment for “Cloud Computing”, “Internet of Things” which do not address the
problems of DCS organization, on the contrary.
Real-time, safety critical, active control systems, health monitoring, etc., all
require special attention in terms of investment and more research to improve (or
change) hardware, system software, application software, system and user data with
aim to make billions of connected computer systems applied more efficiently with
increased reliability and performance [1–4].
All real-time safety-critical applications (active control systems, military, health
monitoring, air-traffic control, banking, etc.) should merge and exploit the advantages offered by DCS.
Therefore, to maximize advantage of DCS on should either to:
• Modify the existing networking schemes to match challenging areas, or
• Build a special purposes safety-critical system for common applications and
make them as a key part of a network.
Otherwise, the DCS domain and market will be organized in different clusters and
clustering is leading to industry segmentation [8–10].
The most important point here is:
• The network should have properties to absorb and support merging process; this
way market clustering and technology segmentation can be avoided.
• Network unique feature is redundancy at every level of implementation. It
should be exploited efficiently. Efficiency, as always, requires some analysis
considering networks reconfiguration for various purposes, like for instance,
performance enhancement, reliability or power efficiency.
