Degrees incorporating this pedagocial element :
Description
After presenting the major differences between a centralized system and a distributed one, this option shows students both the "user" and the "designer" side of distributed applications. Students get acquainted with existing distributed middleware and see how the latter tackle the problems of distributed system design. Are discussed the principles of distributed communication, including client/server synchronous architectures and publish/subscribe decoupled ones. The students also zoom into distributed middleware implementation and learn the basics of distributed algorithmics. Working with simple distributed topologies, they get to write simple algorithms and reason about their correctness.
