Course description
Students learn information networks from a top-down approach. More specifically, they acquire basic knowledge mainly for the overall picture of the Internet, application layer, TCP, and multimedia networks. They also investigate the latest topics and practice packet analysis and network programming. It is preferable that students have learned the contents of "computer communication" for the second year, but not required.
Purpose of class
To acquire basic knowledge and practical methods regarding information networks. Also, to be able to solve the exercises related to them and explain them by yourself.
Goals and objectives
Goals and objectives
  1. To acquire knowledge of data transfer in the network layer. You can solve the exercises related to them and explain them yourself (corresponding to lesson plans 1-4)
  2. To acquire knowledge of the link layer of wireless (mobile, in particular) and wired networks. You can solve the exercises related to them and explain them yourself (corresponding to lesson plans 7, 8, and 10)
  3. To acquire knowledge of network security. You can solve the exercises related to them and explain them yourself (corresponding to lesson plan 11)
  4. To acquire knowledge of the latest topics related to information networks and explain by yourself (corresponding to lesson plans 5 and 6)
  5. To acquire and practice knowledge of packet analysis (corresponding to lesson plans 9, 12, and 13)
