This course presents an introduction to distributed systems principles and paradigms. Key principles in the distributed systems arena are presented including characterization, system models, communication, remote invocation, notion of time, coordination and agreement, consistency and replication, design of distributed file systems. In addition, a case study for the design of distributed systems is explored. A practical component of the course will allow students to experiment with implementing distributed system applications
