Class Distributed Systems Programming

The Distributed Systems Programming course provides students with the knowledge and skills to develop high-quality distributed systems. This course covers advanced concepts of distributed programming, including architectures of distributed systems, interprocess communication, process synchronization, and distributed algorithms. The course also explores the performance and applications of distributed systems. By the end of the course, students will have the ability to create scalable and distributed solutions, an essential skill to acquire in the degree of computer sciences engineering.
