INF-2202 Concurrent and Data-Intensive Programming - 10 ECTS
Course content
This course covers programming techniques to efficiently use modern computers. Topics include concurrent programming, data-intensive programming, and performance evaluation. Emphasis will be on practical use of various programming models and technologies for concurrent and data-intensive programming, and performance evaluation of concurrent applications. Students will use modern computer architectures, systems, libraries and programming languages through programming assignments.Objectives of the course
Most computing devices today have multi- or many-core processors. To write efficient programs for these processors it is necessary to have competency in concurrent, programming, and to have the skills for evaluating the performance of applications running on such processors.
Knowledge:The student
- has fundamental concepts of concurrent programming
- has fundamental knowledge about performance evaluation of sequential and concurrent applications
- has fundamental concepts of data-intensive computing
Skills:The student
- can develop and evaluate multi-threaded, task-, and event-based programs
- can implement programs using low-level programming interfaces
- can utilize programming models and technologies for concurrent and data-intensive programming
- can evaluate the performance of programs running on multi- and many-core processors
General competence:The student
- can understand and solve problems related to concurrent and data-intensive programming
- has the competence to select the a suitable set of programming languages, frameworks, and tools for programming on multi- and many-core platforms

Assessment
Home exam counting 100%. Approved assignments give access to the home exam.
Grade scale: Letter grades A-E, F - fail.
The coursework includes 2-3 written assignments graded "Approved" / "Not approved", and the number of assignments is stated at the start of the semester. Oral presentation of the assignments and demonstrations of a working system can in special cases be claimed by the course responsible.
Re-sit examination: It will not be given a re-sit examination in this course.
Postponed examination: Students with valid grounds for absence will be offered a postponed examination according to Section 21 and 17 in Regulations for examinations at UiT. If practically possible the examination is arranged during the semester as soon as the reasons for absence have ceased.
