Networking independent systems allows for fulfilling a specific task in a coordinated fashion. The underlying message exchange needs to be specified correctly and in many cases needs to also provide non-functional aspects such as robustness, dependability and performance to a certain degree. This seminar will cover such topics in a conference-style setup.
