Course title Concurrent and Distributed Programming
Acronym 13S113KDP
Study programme Software Engineering
Module
Type of study bachelor academic studies
Lecturer (for classes)
Lecturer/Associate (for practice)
Lecturer/Associate (for OTC)
ESPB 6.0 Status mandatory
Condition Object-Oriented Programming 2
The goal Introducing basic concepts of concurrent and distributed programming to students. Introduction of concepts of different abstraction levels in concurrent and distributed programming. Enabling students to write concurrent and distributed programs for most common problems in different programming languages.
The outcome Understanding the basic concepts, algorithms, principles, problems, and solutions related to concurrent and distributed programming. Students should be able to identify different levels of abstraction in a concurrent and distributed programming, to independently write simple concurrent and distributed applications using Java language and to solve common problems of synchronization.
