• Concurrent Systems: An Integrated Approach to Operating Systems, Database, and Distributed Systems - This book focuses on the central role of concurrency in modern software technology. The principles of concurrency are developed from simple shared memory systems through to modern multiprocessor and distributed environments. (Jean Bacon)
• Das Märchen von der verteilten Terminierung
• Distributed Algorithms - This book contains a comprehensive introduction to the field of distributed algorithms -- a collection of the most significant algorithms and impossibility results, all presented in a simple automata-theoretic setting.
• Distributed Algorithms - This course is concerned with the algorithmic aspects of distributed computing. In particular, focuses on Distributed Systems which are prone to hardware and/or software failures. (Jeff Magee, Christos Karamanolis)
• Distributed Computing Systems
• Distributed Software Design: Challenges and Solutions
• Distributed Systems - The book can be roughly partitioned into seven parts: an introduction, theoretical foundations, communication, file systems and database systems, kernel support, real-time systems, and security. (Sape Mullender)
• Distributed Systems: Concepts and Design - The book aims to convey insight into, and knowledge of, the principles and practice underlying the design of distributed systems, both Internet-based and otherwise. Detailed case studies illustrate the concepts for each major topic. (George Coulouris, Jean Dollimore and Tim Kindberg)
• Graduate Course: Distributed Systems - Lecture notes to the course: fall term 2000/2001 at the Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg (Prof. Dr. Stefan Leue)
• IEEE Distributed Systems Online - Hopes to serve as a springboard for building a stronger distributed systems community and offer researchers, students, educators, application developers, and program managers a forum for sharing ideas and discussing projects.
• Introduction to Distributed Algorithms - The textbook introduces the reader to the vast amount of distributed algorithms and theory about these algorithms developed over the past fifteen years.
• A Primer on Distributed Computing

• Vector Clocks - Introduces vector clock systems, reviewing their protocols, properties, and uses. It aims to help distributed computing systems engineers better understand causality-related distributed computing problems, so they can use the appropriate protocols to solve such problems. (February, 2002)
• The Worldwide Computer - An operating system spanning the Internet would bring the power of millions of the world's Internet-connected PCs to everyone's fingertips. (March, 2002)
• A Note on Distributed Computing - Argues that objects that interact in a distributed system need to be dealt with in ways that are intrinsically different from objects that interact in a single address space. (November, 1994)

• A Self-Stabilizing Leader Election Algorithm in Highly Dynamic Ad Hoc Mobile Networks - [PDF] (June, 2008)
