The author considers simultaneously the distribution of computation power, the allocation of programs and databases, and the assignment of communication lines, providing a more complete perspective than previous works in the field. The model developed by the author incorporates set-up costs and the return flow of information, addressing practical concerns often overlooked in other studies. Additionally, the author introduces a novel "Bounded Branch and Bound" algorithm, a powerful mathematical programming technique capable of solving large-scale integer nonlinear programming problems. This algorithm is more efficient than existing methods and can handle problems with nonlinear objective functions and constraints, making it applicable to real-life scenarios with set-up costs. The book concludes by discussing the significance of the model and the insights it provides, highlighting its relevance in the design of distributed systems and computer networks.
