👉 Lopez Computing, also known as the Lopez Architecture, is a conceptual framework for building scalable and resilient distributed systems. Introduced by researchers at the University of Southern California, it emphasizes modularity, fault tolerance, and decentralized control. The architecture is built around the idea of "Lopez nodes," which are autonomous, self-healing units that can dynamically reconfigure themselves in response to failures or changes in the network. Each node maintains a local state and communicates with its neighbors to maintain consistency and coordination, ensuring the system remains functional even when parts of it fail. This approach allows for high availability, efficient resource utilization, and the ability to scale horizontally by adding more nodes without significant reconfiguration. Lopez Computing is particularly valuable in environments where reliability and adaptability are critical, such as large-scale data processing, cloud services, and IoT applications.
