Course Title:
Fundamentals of Networking and Internetworking
Course Description:
Studies network protocols and architectures. Discusses issues of performance evaluation of computer networks, including performance metrics, evaluation tools and methodology, simulation techniques, and limitations. Presents the abstract network design and evaluation issues in the context of the Internet. Covers performance analysis of medium access control protocol; error detection techniques and automatic repeat request algorithms; sliding window and reliable/ordered services; queuing disciplines, including FQ and WFQ; spanning tree and learning bridges; shortest path routing; flow control schemes, such as window flow control and leaky bucket rate control schemes; congestion control; quality of service; and fairness. Uses Internet protocols, such as TCP, UDP, and others, to demonstrate how Internetworking is realized. Includes programming assignments.
