Description:

This course introduces the students to a number of recent advances in computer networks and provides hands-on experience of using tools to design and analyze state-of-the-art networks. Some of the issues that this course will deal with include: ATM networks, xDSL services, cable networks, mobile and wireless networks, Gigabit Ethernets, IPv6, differentiated services (DiffServ), integrated services (IntServ), congestion control, layer-4 switches, proxy servers, and streaming media servers. We shall use several analysis and simulation tools, including Opnet and NS. This is an introductory course. However, it will be useful both for people who are new to networking as well as it will have useful information for engineers, technicians, ISPs and other IT professionals who deal with computer networks and network applications.  A number of  experiments using a number of simulation and measurement tools in a lab environment will provide useful hands-on experience to train the participants to design state-of-the-art networks and analyze them.

 
Who should attend:

Engineers, technician, and IT professionals who deal with networks or IT products.
