This course is meant to illustrate the conceptual foundations, the main features and the most relevant issues of today distributed computational systems. Also, the main technologies for constructing distributed systems are introduced, in terms of languages, middleware, and infrastructures. In particular, logic-based, agent-based, and coordination-based systems are used as the sources for case studies and for experiments in the laboratory.
learning outcomes
At the end of the course, students got acquainted with the fundamental issues of distributed systems, the computational models capturing their essence, and the technologies currently helping facing them in the most systematic and effective way. In particular, students become familiar with the fittest solutions, technologies, architectures, and methodologies to design distributed systems, and is capable of
devising out the most critical aspects of distributed systems coming from physical distribution
determining the most proper methodological approaches
selecting the fittest technologies for implementing the solutions detected
