Content
This course focuses on the issues and programming models related to cloud computing environments and distributed data processing technologies: data partitioning, storage schemes, stream processing, and "mostly shared-nothing" parallel algorithms.
Teaching methods
Due to the COVID-19 crisis, the information in this section is particularly likely to change.
- Lectures
- Scientific readings
- Quizzes (about readings, labs and lectures)
- Practical lab sessions
- Project
Evaluation methods
Due to the COVID-19 crisis, the information in this section is particularly likely to change.
The final grade is computed as follows for the first session (January):- Project 45%
- Final exam 45%
- Online quiz and peer review of other students work 10%
- Project 45%
- Final exam 55%
The professor may request a student to go through an additional oral exam as a complement of the final exam and/or of the project, in cases including, but not limited to, technical issues, or suspicion of irregularities.

Evaluation methods
An alternative exam using an adapted modality will be simultaneously offered to students who can prove before the exam their impossibility to participate to the exam on site. This impossiblity must be attested, for instance with a quarantine certificate or a "formulaire retour" of the Foreign Affairs SPF. Students have the obligation to notify the professor at least 48 hours in advance of the exam if the quarantine situation started earlier than 48 hours before the exam. A student who would report a quarantine situation to the professor but who would not send her or his certificate to the EPL secretary within 24 hours after the end of the exam will see her or his alternative exam cancelled and ignored (i.e., she or he will be considered as not attending the exam on site). The alternative exam will be on the same material as covered by the main exam, and will take place under a form compatible with the quarantine situation of the student. All students who undergo an alternative exam will also be interrogated orally.
