The course provides students with the basic knowledge to understand, analyze and design distributed algorithms. The knowledge is intended to be useful to a wide variety of research topics from the theory of distributed algorithms to protocol design, e.g. broadcasting protocols for discovery purposes in ad-hoc networks.

The course topics include: models of distributed algorithms, fault tolerance abstractions and failure detectors, reliable broadcast, causal broadcast, shared memory, consensus, atomic broadcast, byzantine fault tolerance, virtual synchrony.

... have knowledge about the basic underpinnings of distributed algorithms and the fundamental abstractions used to create them, as well as an overview of consensus, broadcast, and shared memory.

... have demonstrated an understanding of the foundations of distributed algorithms and programming, as well as the ability to relate selected topics in that area to others.

... have demonstrated the ability to reflect the material the course is based on and to prepare a significant portion of it for presentation to peers.
