Distributed Programming

This course covers introductory concepts of distributed Computing, System Administration, Web Programming and Middleware: CORBA, Advanced Communication: Synchronous and asynchronous invocation, Message oriented middleware, From Objects to Components, CORBA Component Model, Client-server programming with sockets and HTTP protocol in Distributed programming. This course covers three broad categories of topics: (a) CORBA architecture; (b) network architecture and (c) web application with CGI in distributed system.

The objectives of this course make the students

• To explain python language as distributed programming in the distributed system.
• To explain CORBA middleware architecture.
• To describe the basic concept of network programming using socket.
• To discuss the basic concept of web architecture and Common Gateway Interface (CGI) application.
• To explain python data science libraries.

Upon the successful completion of this course, students should be able to:

• Apply the basic concept of CORBA and its components
• Create distributed applications using socket
• Develop web applications using Common Gateway Interface (CGI)
• Apply python libraries in Data Science Application
• Apply Distributed programming for wide range of computer platforms, ranging from mobile devices to cloud computing services
