Computer Networks and Distributed Systems - COMP70041
Aims
The module is designed to provide you a clear overview of the challenges encountered when designing and building distributed applications and systems that are robust, efficient, secure and flexible as well as the underlying network protocols needed to support them. The emphasis will be on the conceptual basis for distributed and networked systems design and implementation and techniques to address the challenges and tradeoffs encountered, rather than a detailed study of particular systems and standards. Concepts will be illustrated with examples from practical systems.
