ABSTRACT
The interconnection of processes running in different computer systems is now possible by using
Web services. The benefits of Web services in the modern economy are significant because they
facilitates the automation of activities in Internet distributed businesses and also the
cooperation between organizations. This paper presents a model for a reliable distributed
system and its development stages. This paper describes the communication between the system
processes, based on the message exchange, and also presents the distributed agreement among
processes. For the fault-tolerant systems a list of objectives is defined and, further, a framework
model for distributed systems is proposed. This system framework makes distinction between
management operations and execution operations. The proposed model promotes the use of a
central process especially designed for the coordination and control of other processes. This
model of a reliable distributed system could be used as a platform for many models of
distributed systems, based on the management of replication processes
Keywords: distributed systems, reliability, replication management, information systems.
