Course Information

English

Teaching methodology including the use of eLearning tools

Students will be given several homework assignments (exercises) that will have to be prepared individually (no group work) and presented in class. The programming projects should be done by groups of 3-5 students over several weeks, with final demo presentations.

Course content

The topics taught in the Distributed Systems lecture are applied to various small pen-and-paper exercises. Additionally, several building blocks of distributed systems are designed and implemented in three programming projects.

Topics

Java RMI
Synchronization
Peer-to-peer systems
Distributed file systems
Reliable communications
Service-oriented architectures and cloud computing
Consistency models

Teaching objective

Students should improve their understanding of important concepts of distributed systems by applying them to concrete exercises. Moreover, they should be enabled to design and implement building blocks of distributed systems using their theoretical knowledge.

Prior knowledge expected

Students are required to have good Java programming skills and basic knowledge of computer networks and operating systems at an introductory course level. Ideally, students should be familiar with Java network programming at the socket level. Attendance of the Distributed Systems *lecture* (VO) is strongly recommended.

Other materials

Will be available in Moodle.
