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.

Too much time spent always submitting the same solutions because the autograder doesn't work!

The course is pretty good and lays down the basic theoretical knowledge about concurrency needed to begin developing expertise in this field. The quizzes and projects help you remember and understand the theoretical aspects while at the same time the projects also give you a glimpse of how the learned theory and aspects are applied in a more realistic coding setting rather than pseudo code.

Este curso depende del curso de Paralelismo, por esta razón se debe tomar los cursos en orden. Debería tener mas ejemplos de código para un mejor feedback de la teoría.

It is great but some homework had bugs

I wasted a lot of time because of the poor quality of test evaluation (autograder). Resubmit of the same code often means different results in autograder.

On the other hand, the course shows basic concepts of concurrent programming and opens themes for further studies.

I enjoyed doing this course more than the Parallel Programming in Java

The course is very good, teaching in simple way several complex questions.

Better than Parallel Programming

I would prefer more assignments.

Excellent Course

Excellent! Great thanks to professor Vivek Sarkar

Excellent course , well explained and organised.

Good

Lo consiglio a tutti, Vorrei soltanto che gli argomenti fossero affrontati più approfonditamente dal punto di vista teorico

Excelent course, just some mixups with the concurrent API used in the assignment for Week3

Great course to understand the fundamentals of concurrent programming!

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

Хорошо

Much stronger in mini-projects than the first course.

A lot of my time has been wasted due to a very poor explanation of actors. All it takes is "Actors have their own threads and that is how they are concurrent.

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

Very good, but I'd like more practical examples and walk-troughs. If you don't get it the in the only example or the demo, then you're left on your own to Google for more examples and a deeper understanding.

Only thing I missed are more optional exercises, otherwise a great course.

Good course, with relevant basics of concurrency, even if I expected deeper and detailed contents.
