  1. CS4513 Distributed Computing Systems Bob Kinicki Term D04

  2. Introduction • Course Objectives • Required Background • Course Philosophy • Course Procedures Distributed Computing Systems

  3. Course Objectives • To expose students to both the abstraction and details of file systems. • To introduce concepts related to distributed computing systems. • To focus on performance and flexibility issues related to systems design decisions. Distributed Computing Systems

  4. Course Objectives 4. To prepare students for life-long learning. 5. To understand why and not just the memorize the details. 6.To expose students to current literature in distributed systems. 7. To prepare students for an industrial programming environment. Distributed Computing Systems

  5. Expected Student Background • Data Structures • Operating Systems • Systems programming skills using C/C++ • Probability {weakest requirement} • The ability to use abstraction in software design. Distributed Computing Systems

  6. Course Philosophy • 4000 Level Course – almost at graduate level!! • Students need to extract information on programming assignments from Fossil Lab aids. • Learn by doing. Distributed Computing Systems

  7. Course Procedures • Use Course Web Page. • Work with TA’s on programming assignments – office hours and email questions. • Use turnin to turn in programs. • Review session before exams. • Exams are closed-book. Distributed Computing Systems
