Course Objectives | This course will introduce the algorithms and technologies of distributed systems. It will teach both fundamentals as well as systems where these fundamentals are applied in practice. The course will be further based on advanced material from both research papers and several textbooks on distributed and parallel computing. In addition to the theoretical work, during the semester, at least one programming project will be assigned. |
