- Course objectives
- In this course, students will acquire a deeper understanding of principles of parallel systems as well as practical experience with the desing and implementation of parallel (multi-threaded) systems.
- Syllabus
- Initial kick-off meeting; project definition; presentation of problems related to parallelism and tools used to build the project; final discussion.

- Teaching methods
- 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. Project topics are fixed and acknowledged by the teacher during the first 2 weeks of semester.
- Assessment methods
- To be given a credit, a group must present 100% functional implementation, appropriate documentation, and present a final report summarizing experience gained.
- Language of instruction
