[Distributed_systems] week 8?

[Lukács Dániel]

Hi!

That's awesome! :) I think most of us are new to this, so it's still all 
experimental.

The length should be around 20 minutes. Maybe less, but definitely not 
more.

I guess the topic is mostly up to you (until it's multithreaded servers 
:)), but if you need a plan:

  * The *video* could be some theory intro and a demo about moving from
    iterative server to multithreaded server. (With iterative server,
    one client has to wait until the other client finished
    communication. Threads can solve this problem.) If you don't want to
    code everything from scratch, it may be a good idea to create a
    supplementary handout and refer to that in the video.
  * During class they could implement Robi's chat server and chat client
    during *class*. They will need a detailed assignment text for this.
    As Robi said, a demo (or written instruction) could be necessary
    here if there are difficult or unexpected or tricky operations.
  * Finally, they could solve Robi's HTTP server for *homework*. They
    will need a detailed assignment text for this.

If they have this down, then week 9 could be about implementing 
ping-pong and avoiding deadlocks.

Is it realistic for you to finish the video until Thursday night? We 
could then review it on Friday and publish it, so students would have 
time to watch it during the weekend.

Bests,

Dániel
