!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] is a [Distributed system] and an [Architecture] [Framework] in which there is __NOT__ one central [Authoritative Entity] which determines the [state] of the system.

* Logical [{$pagename}] — is is a:
** single [Monolithic Architecture]
** amorphous swarm - if you cut the system in half, will both halves continue to fully operate as independent units?
