Summary

The course provides basic orientation in the field of parallel and distributed systems. Both the multiprocessor architectures and the distributed computing frameworks are introduced, together with techniques of their utilization from the programmer's perspective. The methodology and tools for the development of parallel algorithms are shown and typical problems from the field of distributed algorithms are demonstrated. Finally the subject gives an overview of modern object-oriented distributed systems, their applications and interoperability.
