Computer Networking

What Will Learn?

  • Course Aims
    This course reflects the latest essential networking technologies with emphasis on wireless networking, including 802.11, 802.16, Bluetooth, and 3G/4G cellular, paired with fixed-network coverage of ADSL, Internet over cable, gigabit Ethernet, MLPS, and peer-to-peer networks, Fiber to the Home, RIFD, delay-tolerant networks, in addition to Internet routing, multicasting, congestion control, quality of service, real-time transport, and content distribution. Typically, a description is provided for the inner facets of Computer Networks, exploring their functionality from underlying hardware up to applications. The course dissects and depicts the principles associated with each layer and then translates them through examples from the networking, Internet, wireless networks, and software defined networks.
