Parallel, Concurrent, and Distributed Programming in Java Specialization
Learn parallel, concurrent, and distributed programming in Java with this specialization. Gain hands-on experience with popular Java APIs and prepare for multithreaded and distributed programming on various computer platforms. From biomedical research to financial services, this specialization is suitable for anyone with basic knowledge of sequential programming. Start now!
Parallel, concurrent, and distributed programming underlies software in multiple domains, ranging from biomedical research to financial services. This specialization is intended for anyone with a basic knowledge of sequential programming in Java, who is motivated to learn how to write parallel, concurrent and distributed programs. Through a collection of three courses (which may be taken in any order or separately), you will learn foundational topics in Parallelism, Concurrency, and Distribution. These courses will prepare you for multithreaded and distributed programming for a wide range of computer platforms, from mobile devices to cloud computing servers.
