By definition, a distributed system is any system that comprises of multiple components on variety of machines that work together to appear as a single, organized system. Although the definition may seem straightforward, in the real-world, a distributed system is one of the most complex environments to understand, manage, and monitor.

An example of a specification is the correct operation of the hardware of a microprocessor. An SDC is the worst possible outcome of a fault, as it can have an arbitrary impact on the correctness of software running on the hardware. Therefore, testing alone is unlikely to be the definitive solution to address these new faults.

The answer is hardware interrupts. CPU power efficiency is strongly tied to how long the CPU can stay asleep ( 8+ ms is apparently a good number ), and random wakeups work against that. If multiple threads can synchronize or coalesce their timer waits then the system becomes more power efficient. Implications.
