Welcome

Welcome to the website of the Distributed Systems and Services group at Leeds University.

The group unites two central research themes within the mainstream of Computer Science - architecture and systems, each linked through a common objective: to support the needs of the next generation of distributed/Internet computing. Grid Computing is one of such examples that enables advanced e-Science and e-Business applications, distinguished from conventional distributed computing by its focus on large-scale, dynamical interactions and resource sharing across different virtual organisations.

Our current research focus and major effort is to develop innovative and advanced technology for building secure and dependable services for such applications.
