The students are expected to have a solid grasp of the fundamental of computer networking, including understanding of the TCP/IP protocols and sockets programming.

The course focuses on the design, implementation, analysis, and evaluation of large-scale networked systems with emphasis on performance parameters

The students are presented with cases studies of campus & NRNs networks (TEIA_net, EDUnet, Grnet, Geant)

14



The goals we want to achieve in course are deep understanding of :

High speed network technologies (wireless, DWDM, giga Ethernet, ATM, ADSL)

Intrnetworking & Routing

Resource management, Congestion Control, Congestion Avoidance & QOS

Network services
