First sentence: Computer-integrated systems are characterized by a structure in which a set of executing processes share (or compete for) a set of resources, for example, processes running in a multitask operating system, transactions in distributed database systems, concurrent software systems and computer networks, parts produced by automated manufacturing systems, and vehicles competing for the same path in transportation systems.
