Advanced Distributed Systems and Algorithms

Catalog description

This course facilitates students to learn and to apply the concepts of distributed computing environments along with the distributed algorithms in varied real-world scenarios. The distributed characteristics of such environments are to be learnt at the Systems and Software Architecture level where the various architectural design patterns and integration styles such as asynchronous / sync and their design implications are discussed, applied and verified in details. The course will also get in depths of learning how distributed algorithms and their optimizations when aligned with the characteristics of distributed systems, especially applied in the complex domains and their analytics, require to analyze and design solutions for Consensus, Agreements, Sustainability, Integrations and Aggregations in the systems. Solutions designed for Distributed Systems and Distributed Computing to inculcate the Security and Privacy attributes will be the other essential component of this course structure.
