Abstract: In this paper, semilocal rings are characterized in different ways; in particular, it is proved that a ring is semilocal if and only if every descending chain of principal right ideals of , $a_0R\supseteq a_1R\supseteq a_2R\supseteq \cdots \supseteq a_nR\supseteq \cdots$ with $a_{i+1}=a_i-a_ib_ia_i$ eventually terminates. Then modules with semilocal endomorphism rings are characterized by chain conditions.
