Projects

The project should be carried out individually but preferably in a group of two students. Each students should have complete knowledge of the system and be able to do the necessary experiments. The written presentations are done individually.

We will have more than one group assigned to a project. In that case the two groups will work independently.

When you have a good understanding of the goal of your own project, how to design a solution and which tools to use, you will give a presentation to students of other groups. You will also listen to their descriptions thus learning more about problems that you will face when implementing a distributed system.

A large part of you project will consist of performing performance studies, experiments that will help you in your design decissions. You will during the course have meetings with other students where you can present your findings and which decissions you have taken.

Towars the end of the project you should have compiled evaluations that convincingly show that you have met the goals of the project.

Hardware resources

We have a couple of serveres that you can use to do experiments. You will find all information of this follwowing the link below.  The students working with SICS can also use a cluster at SICS, talk to Jim or Sarunas on how to get access. We also have som dedicated servers that you can use and II'm trying to get hold of some more.

• servers at KTH that can be used
