====== Description ======

In this course, we focus on concurrent programming in the object oriented language Java. The course consists of three main parts. In the first part, we discuss concurrent programming in general. In the second part, we concentrate on writing concurrent programs in Java. In the third and final part, we look at techniques and tools to verify concurrent Java programs.

====== Evaluation ======

The performance of the students will be evaluated as a combination of three assignments (60%), three presentations (15%), a paper (15%) and participation (10%). The latter includes, for example, participation during lectures, adding to this wiki, asking questions after presentations, etcetera.
