學生對 莱斯大学 提供的 Concurrent Programming in Java 的評價和反饋

Very basic

Examples and projects are somewhat "sandbox" grade, without touching real problems of this field. Code and tests quality is poor in my opinion.

I would consider it as a overview of possible approaches, not a course. Assigments could be frustating because outcome is sometimes non-deterministic (I wasted few hours of my time because of this, it turned out that my solution was fine). Sometimes given examples are not following Java documentation in details. They could not work in corner cases. It should not be the case in the course made by professionals.

Compared to the other courses I took authors of this one did not put much effort in preparing good materials and exercises. Course can by challenging by means of standing frustration assigments could give you. And in my opinion not because it is hard to pass them and they are demanding. It is because they are not properly prepared.

I have mixed feeling about specializations. This topic can be hard. And course mentions most of the important topics in non-sequential computer computing essential to making working systems. But it does not give deep insight in many of them.

Great course to understand the fundamentals of concurrent programming!

Good

Excellent course , well explained and organised.

Excellent! Great thanks to professor Vivek Sarkar

Much stronger in mini-projects than the first course.

Hard course, we need more assignments, small chunks. Making assignments for courses like these is not trivial as well.

Great course, it focuses on the basics and let you master them

Хорошо

Very good course on concurrency that can be applied to many other programming languages as well.

Very informative course !

Great prof, great material, great TAs ...

Highly recommended!

Great course in the series on Parallel, Concurrent and Distributed Programming in Java.

Another great course from Prof. Sarkar!

Fine survey of the core concepts supported by mini project and quizes

Very well organized course

Great

very nice content and throughly articulated the difficult topic

nice

"It takes a genius to make it simple.”

Prof. Sarkar has explained and illustrated some of the complex concurrency and parallelism concepts in very simple terms. Even an experienced concurrency java developer will have something to take away from these classes.

Thank you.

Short and easy to understand multi-threading with locks, object-based isolation, Actors, Atomic values and optimistic concurrency.

Great introduction to concurrent programming concepts. Well-paced. Instructor is clear and personable. The mini-projects feel a little too easy sometimes, but at that point it's up to me to dig deeper and learn more on the topics. I enjoyed this course very much.

Precise but comprehensive at the same time

This was a good course and covered all the topics relevant to the course. I liked the Optimistic Concurrency in week 4 - that was an area I was not exposed to before
