Compare the event-driven approach to message-driven and request-response systems in distributed computing.

The objective of this examination is to differentiate among three core paradigms in the sphere of distributed computing: event-driven architecture, message-driven architecture, and request-response models. These frameworks dictate how various components within a distributed network interact and communicate. A comprehensive understanding of these methods is vital for selecting the appropriate architecture to suit particular distributed computing applications. This subject matter is principally related to the categories of "Fundamentals of Distributed Systems" and "Computing Algorithms".
