Teaching Grid Technologies to PhD Students, Part 2: Course Structure and Experiences
Dana Petcu · IEEE Distributed Systems Online · 2008
Grid technologies serving large distributed systems can help address many application areas' computing and storage needs. Consequently, the scientific and large-scale information processing communities are increasingly interested in studying large-scale distributed systems, such as Grid-based ones. Unfortunately, there are relatively few reports on best practices in teaching Grid topics that teachers can follow when they start building a new Grid-related course. The second installment of this two-part department presents a case study of the author's experiences in teaching Grid computing to PhD students over the last three years.
