Description
This set contains the materials needed for a series of "games" that can be used in-class as unplugged activities or at home as a study aid. Game rules are available as PDF from my website. This was desiged for the University of Maryland's Department of Computer Science course CMSC 433: Programming Language Technologies and Paradigms, a senior-level class on concurrent and distributed programming.
Topics covered include:
- data races synchronization
- event traces
- deadlocks/livelocks/starvation
- fork/join task pools
- message passing
- streams/map-reduce
- nonblocking algorithms
Each game is designed to take between 5 and 10 minutes of class time, with occasional suggestions for longer games.
