Course objectives

Students participating the course are organized in groups where they work together and without supervision on a given project. Students are expected to report the status of the work regularly and to consult problems they encounter if necessary. In this course, students will acquire a deeper understanding of principles of distributed and parallel systems as well as practical experience in the desing and implementation of parallel systems. Individual topics for projects vary significantly. A working implementation must be presented at the end of the project to be able to obtain the credit.

Syllabus

• Initial kick-off meeting; project definition; presentation of problems related to parallelism and tools used to build the project; final discussion.

Assessment methods (in Czech)

Výuka probíhá formou samostatné práce ve skupinách po max 3-4 lidech na zadaném projektu. Během prvních 14 dní výuky si každá skupina se souhlasem vyučujícího zvolí téma projektu. Během semestru probíhá samostatná práce na projektu a konzultace k jednotlivým projektům. Zhruba v půli semestru proběhne krátká prezentace aktuálního stavu práce na projektu ostatním skupinám. V závěru semestru pak, každá skupina prezentuje svůj projekt ostatním skupinám. Pro udělení zápočtu je nutné projekt úspěšně dokončit, což znamená předvést 100% funkční implementaci, odpovídající dokumentaci k implementaci a odevzdat závěrečnou hodnotící zprávu.
