10 | Distribution transparency considered harmful? | Should distributed systems behave like centralized systems? This topic is a follow-up of the introduction lecture on design of distrbuted systems, It inlcudes the presentation of a paper by Jim Waldo et al "A Note on distributed computing" from 1994 and the subsequent discussions that this paper triggered. The latter requires a little research/googling by the students. |

5 | Video streaming on the Internet | This topic address video streaming on the Internet. Basic streaming concepts and priciples of solutions have been covered at the lecture. Yet, the lecture has not gone into implementation details. The focus should be on streaming servers and protocols for streaming video. |

7 | Pub-sub | Basic pub-sub including concepts, applications, and semantics have been covered at the lecture. Yet, the lecture has not gone into implementation details and challenges. Students are to present either a typical imlementation (such as Siena or Gryphon) or fundamental problems of building pub-sub overlays as outlined in the listed PODC 2007 paper. |

8 | Group communication | The paradigm of view-oriented group communication is feature-rich. The lecture will cover the basic concepts in this area and consider a few representative properties:
The students are to consider a wider scope of group-communication properties and explore them to a greater depth by comparing alternative implementations. Alternatively, the students can take a representative group-communication system and consider the full range of properties it provides. |
