This is a great course in parallel programming. The videos were very clear, summaries reinforced the video material and the programming projects and quizzes were challenging but not overwhelming.

Great course. Introduces Parallel Programming in Java in a gentle way.
Kudos to Professor Vivek Sarkar for simplifying complex concepts and presenting them in an elegant manner.

A great course, but I think it would be even better if only the structures from Java 8 were used, and not the functons build by the Rice University.

Great material, well arranged course flow, willing teacher, and nice project snippets. More coding samples and projects could have been included.

The last split average array example can have more graphic to illustrate for ease to understand the problem and solution for the last project.

The courses covers broadly the new synchronization primitives in Java8. It is very clear and demonstrative. It is very shallow though.

Thank you for this course! Really interesting, but lacks the real world examples and has little number of tasks to complete.

I feel like this course can improved if more details/examples are provided in summary. But overall, a very nice course.

Very great, I learn the fondamental notions of parallelism before to practice them in the mini project. I recommend it.

The concepts are explained well. Quizzes and mini project has good details to understand the concept better.

Could have had more demonstrations, or even examples for reference. Overall, it was a very good course.

More details on concurrency would be a huge benefit to course and students (even as optional material)

Good course that gave you a good overview. The code assignments code have been a little more advanced.

Simple delivery, very manageable work load, and still something tangible to take away from the course.

It was useful and interesting course, however, I'd like to see more complicated practical tasks

-1 star due to the too-easy homework.
I wish the homework can be harder and more challenging.

it'll be perfect if mini projects can deeper test what we've learned in the class.
