Recommendation: to passed the subjects of Fundamentals of Computer Science, Fundamentals of Programming, Computer Networks and the Internet.
The objective of this subject is to present the main characteristics of the infrastructures for the Big Data processing from three point of view: computation, storage and communication. The concepts and use cases of the main technologies used for massive data infraestructures will be presented, as well as some aspects related to the structure and location (IoT, Edge, Cloud, Distributed)
cost, energy consumption, redundancy, scalability and availability.
The subject contains three sections where each will have an appropiated methodology to the type of teaching:
Conceptual classroom: theoric and conceptual aspects of the contents will be explained.
Applied concepts: short works will be done on virtualized infrastructure in the covered topics that will be developed during the course.
Practices: group sessions of 2 students to resolve problems within the practices sessions.
Annotation: Within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.

a) Evaluation activities
The grade will be based on the evaluation of the different activities of the subject:
General concepts: individual quiz of general concepts developed in the subject.
Applied concepts: individual work submitted to the Virtual Campus.
Practices: collaborative work and personal work developed during the sessions.
Important: the activity of Practices & Applied Concepts are submitted during the course and are not recoverable.
b) Calendar of evaluation activities
The evaluation activities will be continued and the submitted through the Virtual Campus. The dates of continuous evaluation and work delivery will be published at Virtual Campus.
The student will be informed in the Virtual Campus about possible changes since this is the information interchange platform between teachers and students.
c) Recovery process
If the student don't pass the individual evaluation of general concepts and with (practice + applied concepts)/2 grade >= 5 points then an additional quiz will be programed.
The grades will compute the indicated percentage >= 5 points. Otherwise and after the recover quiz the student don't reach 5 points in each part, the student will not pass the subject and as a final grade will have the equivalent weighted grade if <=5 or 4.5 if the grade weighted this note is greater >=5.
d) Review of qualifications
For each evaluation activity, a place, date and time of revision will be fixed. The student can review the activity with the teacher. If the student does not apply for this review, this activity will not be reviewed later.
e) Qualifications
Honor Grade. Honor grade is the decision of the staff. The regulations of the UABindicatethat HG can only be granted to students who have obtained a final grade >= 9.00 and only can be assigned up to 5% of HG of the total number of students enrolled.
The award of GH is considered a merit and sign of excellence and is reserved for students who meet the requirements and not will be assigned automatically.
In the case of not attending any evaluation the student will have a Not Graded as the final grade of the subject.
f) Irregularities by the student, copy and plagiarism
Without prejudice to other disciplinary measures and in accordance with current academic regulations, irregularities committed by a student in an evaluable activity will have a grade = zero (0).
These evaluation activities qualified with zero (0) will not be recoverable. If this activity is necessary to pass compulsory evaluation activities, this subject will be suspended directly (without the opportunity to recover it in the same course).
These irregularities include, among others:
In future editions of this subject, students with this irregular actions can't compesate activities from previous year.
In summary: the plagiarism (or try) in any of the evaluation activities is equivalent to don't pass the subject & this action invalidate compensatory activities in subsequent courses.
h) Students that don't pass the subject in previous year.
These students, with a practices grade >= 5 can compensate the practices of the curent year.
