Yleistä

 In this course, you will familiarize yourself with practical aspects of distributed systems and algorithms. The course consists of one individual assignment and  two small (group) projects which concentrate on different aspects of distributed systems. You are allowed to work in groups of up to 3 students. The details of the assignments will be posted later.

As background knowledge, we assume that you are familiar with the material covered in the Distributed Systems course and in the Linux Fundamentals course. 

Kurssin suorittaminen

 Each of the assignments and projects is graded separately on scale 1-5. To pass the course you need to successfully complete each of them (i.e., get at least 1 from each of them).
