thanks

good

I will start with the teacher. The teacher is clearly very knowledgeable about the subject and is great at articulating things in a way that is understandable. I do think that some of the lectures about different paradigms focused too much on a specific application, as opposed to more general concepts about the paradigm, but overall this was not a big detractor at all.

The min projects were a bit too mini for my taste. I didn't feel that I learned any one thing as much as hoped. For instance, Spark seems really cool, but I only ended up writing a single function for the project. Perhaps this my fault for having the incorrect expectations.

Overall, a good quick intro to the various aspects to distributed programming in Java, with a relatively small time commitment.

I thoroughly enjoyed taking this course. The knowledge and perspectives discussed were immensely helpful and have significantly broadened my understanding. The high-level abstractions taught were phenomenal and provided deep insights into the subject matter. While I appreciated the content, I felt that incorporating more exercises would enhance the learning experience even further. Practical exercises would allow for better application of the concepts covered. Overall, this course was incredibly valuable, and I am grateful for the opportunity to have participated.

Solidly worth the money!

The lectures and references are perfect, and the perspective is super helpful. The exercises still need work, but they still provide a good foundation for learning this material.

For the maintainers, a good model for compound assignments of graduated difficulty is the sbt-moderated grading for the scala sequence. I think you did a very good job within the (maybe self-imposed?) constraint of single file upload, but this is the only major area allowing any improvement in this excellent course!

Useful course overall, but a bit too short and too basic in covering a number of concepts. The MPI homework was needlessly painful due to inability to run under Windows other than by repeatedly submitting to the autograder as well as annoying undocumented "feature" of MPI_Isend in combination with MPI_Waitall that cost me 2 days.

Good introductory course. The implementation assignments (mini projects) could be more challenging though. There are 2 about a web server implementation that could be easily a single one plus a different final project that explored more Distributed actors and Distributed Reactive Programming.

Excelente curso para tener una mirada global sobre la programacion distribuida, una pueta a un mundo fasinante para quienes gustan de la ciencia de la computacion, son videos introductorios con referencias a documentacion que puede ser de utilidad/ interes.

The concepts taught were clear and precise which helped me with an ongoing project. It would have been really better if the mini-projects were a bit more complicated.

thanks to coursera platform,to learn new way to solving distributed problem in java

Excellent course and instructor. It is a nice introduction to several subjects.

The course was well laid out and introduced me to some new concepts.

Great lectures. I really learned a lot about distributed computing.

First two courses are better. This one is quick and a little vague

Learnt so much, I've going to do such good things at work. :)

I would expect more indepth details about topics

nice experience. i have learned a lot programs.

The instructor was not clear with his approach

Course does not go too deep in arguments, but gives a quite basic knowledge about distributed data structures and algorithms.

Programming assignment is some what easy, I think it my be better to require student to finished the complete code.

The basicness of this course is simply unexpectable. It makes you "Jack of all trades, master of none".

Covers topics not in the EPFL's distributed computing course. Assignments are trivial.

Good course for over view of all the concepts related to Distributed Programming.

Good course. I think MPI and Actors could use a lot more lectures and exercise.

Please provide a detailed explanation to give some background knowledge.
