===== Objectives =====

The goal of the course is to introduce the main algorithmic techniques in the framework of parallel and distributed models of computing; to define the most significant complexity parameters and the computational limits of parallelism and concurrency. 
Finally computational tools to design and analyze parallel and distributed algorithms are given.
===== Course Outline =====
 
== Models of computation ==
     * The PRAM model
     * Other models for parallel computation.
     * The distributed model.
== Design and analysis of parallel algorithms ==
     * Prefix sums, List Ranking, Euler tour.
     * Standard techniques and inner sequential problems.
== Design and analysis of distributed algorithms ==
     * Communication complexity.
     * Control algorithms.
     * Fault tolerant algorithms .
     * Distributed data manipulation.
== Classical examples ==
