Computing has evolved from sequential and independent program running to parallel or concurrent task executions in a large well-organized cluster of servers. The latter are represented by high-performance and cloud computing. In these computing domains, not only performance but also reliability, resilience, and power efficiency are goals of the system design and maintenance. Implications of the system designs on applications, including Internet-based and IoT applications, are also significant. This concentration area will develop a student's expertise and intuition in the unique techniques and principles used to design, evaluate, and use the systems and applications running on them. Students will be exposed to state-of-the-art techniques, theories, and software to learn representative systems running in today's large data centers and high-performance centers.
