-The course covers the programming models and the paradigms used with distributed and parallel systems, for both the application and support tool software. Taking into account structured programming models (algorithmical skeletons, parallel design patterns) as well as those models based on components and services, all the problems related to the functional (expressive power, modularity and reuse) and non functional (performance, fault tolerance, adaptivity) concerns will be considered. The lab module will be used to experiment different approaches and solutions on the most common distributed architectures, such as workstation networks, grids and clouds.
+The course covers the programming models and the paradigms used with distributed and parallel systems, for both the application and support tool software.
+The main focus of the course is on structured programming models (parallel design pattern, algorithimc skeletons) as the main API provided to the application programmers to develop parallel applications.
+The implementation of structured parallel programming models will be detailed in terms of models and support mechanisms.
+The models and mechanisms considered include classical models (client/server, master/worker, map/reduce) and mechanisms (POSIX TCP/IP, OpenMP, MPI, etc).
+While presenting models and paradigms, special emphasis will be given to different aspects related to either the programming model presented to the final user or the particular implementation mechanism chosen, namely
+  * separation of concerns (application vs. system programmers, functional vs. non functional concerns)
+  * program refactoring techniques
+  * modularity, software reuse, incremental design
+  * performance modelling and portability
+  * fault tolerance and adaptivity
+  * targeting of different, possibly heterogeneous, architectures, including co-processor exploitation.
-The course will be logically split into several distinct parts:
