This project is developed incrementally.
Each project helps in understanding the concepts of Distributed Systems and also focuses on practical implementation.
| Project | About the project |
|---|---|
| Simple Messenger | This is the first part towards learning client-server interaction. This project aims at enabling two Android devices to send messages to each other. |
| Group Messenger1 | This is the second part of the project. A group messenger is developed with a Local Persistent Key-Value table i.e a Content Provider. Here an Android device can interact with multiple devices at the same time, thus implementing multicast. |
| Group Messenger2 | This is the third part of the project. The multicast group messenger is further extended with Total and FIFO ordering guarantees. The app implements B-multicast. A failure is injected and this project aims implementing a decentralized algorithm. |
| Simple DHT | This is the fourth part of the project. This is a simplified version of Chord. This project implements ID space partitioning/re-partitioning, ring-based routing and node joins. |
| Simple Dynamo | This is the final part of creating an Amazon Simple Dynamo. This project aims at implementing the three main pieces for Dynamo: Partitioning, Replication and Failure Handling. The main goal here is to implement availability and linearizability at the same time. |
