From John Rayworth's excellent site (here):

Centrally controlled system - A hardware and/or software IT system in which all parts of it are controlled by a central controller/server/mainframe.

(Purely) Distributed system - A hardware and/or software IT system in which various parts of the control and/or processing are controlled by individual controllers/servers/computers throughout the system.

Standards
