      My perspectives and understanding of the term DISTRIBUTED mean to myself:

      separate, divide, multiply, disperse, spread out, coordinate, collaborate, administrate, give out orders, implement, copied, given, shared, inter-connectivity network, system, telecommunication, etc


      My interpretation of what distributed means in a physical or architecture form:


      Form – Geometrical with a consistent shape.
      Connections – Linked joints that distributes structure and stability among a certain area.
      Materials - Consistent use of repeated materials that promotes multiplication formation or layout.
      Space – Formed separately organized in a spread out manner.
      Functions –Encouraging a system of bringing something through a distributed system or network to and from another thing within the distributed web of connectivity.
      Journey – Starting from a central location dispersed to a number of locations vice versa.
      Land use – Distribution format of land use, purpose, and function that serves an overall functional of the entire system.
