MCQ IN COMPUTER SCIENCE & ENGINEERING

Detailed explanation-1: -Openness is concerned with extensions and improvements of distributed systems. Detailed interfaces of components need to be published. New components have to be integrated with existing components. Differences in data representation of interface types on different processors (of different vendors) have to be resolved.

Detailed explanation-2: -Openness: The openness of the distributed system is determined primarily by the degree to which new resource-sharing services can be made available to the users. Open systems are characterized by the fact that their key interfaces are published.

Detailed explanation-3: -A: An open distributed system offers services according to clearly defined rules. An open system is capable of easily interoperating with other open sys-tems but also allows applications to be easily ported between different imple-mentations of the same system.

Detailed explanation-4: -Openness-how open is the software designed to be developed and shared with each other. Concurrency-multiple machines can process the same function at the same time. Scalability-how do the computing and processing capabilities multiply when extended to many machines.

Detailed explanation-5: -Openness refers to the ability of distributed systems to be extended and improved in its hardware and software components. The distributed system should be able to accept and remove components at will, based on a detailed and standardised interface of components.
