Distributed algorithms are algorithms designed to run on hardware consisting of many interconnected processors. Pieces of a distributed algorithm run concurrently and independently, each with only a limited amount of information. The algorithms are supposed to work correctly, even if the individual processors and communication channels operate at different speeds and even if some of the components fail. | Form of teaching
Lectures: 30, Colloquium: 30, Laboratory: 30
The coursework includes 2 written assignments graded Pass/Fail. Oral presentation of the assignments and demonstration of a working system can be claimed. Approved assignments give access to the final written exam. | Coursework requirements
