Course content
********** This course will be conducted online for Fall Semester 2020 due to the covid19 pandemic. **********

The Internet has become the main medium of communication in our modern society and it is part of the everyday life of billions of users. It is therefore essential that engineers of the future society have a strong understanding of computer networking and Internet technology. Besides, the Internet is continuously evolving, and it is important that engineers can adapt their knowledge to the Future Internet.
This class will present Future Internet and advanced Networking architectures. The main founding principles of the Internet (Architecture, Naming, Routing) will be surveyed and then new Internet architecture and Information-Centric Networking architectures (NDN, etc.) will be presented. Cyber-physical systems and the Internet of Things (IoT) will be covered, as well as 5G for mobile network and an emphasize on Vehicular Networks, as well the novel softwarization paradigm with Software-Defined Networking and NFV (Lecture 6). The use of new AI algorithms for Computer Networking and direct application may also be discussed within each lecture.
The advanced knowledge on Computer Networking combined with the strong background in engineering of our students will nurture engineers for the Future Society.
