Networked Systems Cluster

Modern Internet services have transformed the world in which we live. The foundations for these services are operating systems for efficiently managing computer resources, the communication networks and protocols that comprise the Internet, and the distributed systems that power Web services and applications. Students in this cluster will learn the fundamental concepts that make the Internet and the Web possible, including the principles, architecture, and implementation of modern operating systems, communication networks, and networked services. Students completing this cluster will be prepared for graduate study in operating systems, distributed systems, and networking, or for employment in a position developing networked systems services or infrastructure.
