Learning outcomes

The goal of this course is to present techniques for programming and verifying concurrent software systems, also applied to mobile computing. It presents the syntactical constructs, their semantics and the techniques for concurrent programming, the problems induced by concurrency and the possibility of verification through automatic tools. It presents the development of concurrent web services through servlets. Hence it describes techniques for mobile software development, typically consuming web services, where concurrency is more and more extensively used. The course uses the Java programming language and the Android framework as concrete contexts for development.
