Contents

The Distributed Operating Systems lecture continues and consolidates the topics of the basic course Operating Systems and Security. It is particularly focused on presenting a balanced combination of distributed systems in-use as well as research projects and their underlying construction principles.

The lecture covers the following aspects:

  • Scalability and Fault Tolerance
  • Memory Consistency and Synchronization in Parallel Systems
  • Security in Distributed Systems and Trusted Computing

Slides

Slides will be published here shortly before the lectures. You can find recordings in the BBB room for the lecture.

Exercises

Exercises will be published here about a week before the tutorials. You can find recordings in the BBB room for the lecture.
