Modern information systems leverage distributed architecture to enhance scalability, reliability, and availability. These systems distribute components across multiple interconnected computers, while appearing as a single coherent system to end users. This course (INF2204H – Digital Connectivity for Information Systems: Foundation, Innovation and Challenges), provides an in-depth understanding and insights into the evolving landscape of digital connectivity and distributed systems. The course will focus on the foundation of computer networks and the design of distributed systems including computer networks terminology, protocols, architectures, technologies, and the main principles behind designing reliable distributed systems.
Pre-requisites: INF1003H or INF1339H or permission of the instructor
