Distributed Computing Systems

Description

This is an introductory course in Distributed Computing Systems. This course is the study of how to design and implement a computer system where the state of the system is divided over multiple computing nodes. More specifically, this course teaches design and implementation techniques that enable the building functional, fast, fault-tolerant and scalable distributed systems. To make the issues more concrete, the class includes project(s) requiring significant design and implementation which enables students to gain practical experience in designing, implementing, and debugging real distributed systems. Topics may include, distributed communication models, distributed file systems, replication, consistency models, fault tolerance, QoS and performance, scheduling, concurrency, agreement and commitment, Paxos-based consensus, MapReduce and NoSQL datastores, decentralized systems and cloud computing systems. Prerequisites: LE/EECS 3101 3.00, LE/EECS 3213 3.00 or LE/EECS 3214 3.00, LE/EECS 3221 3.00.
