At the core of these systems lie distributed algorithms, which not only coordinate resource management and data replication but also enable consensus, fault tolerance and dynamic scalability.

Crash-recovery: When a process fails it can recover, usually by making use of sort of recovery algorithm. This may involve reading from a database or communicating with other processes.
