This course will provide the student with the following subjects: queueing theory; performance of communication networks including measurement, modelling and analysis of network performance; network architecture including layering of networks, switching and sensing; network design including dimensioning (deciding how fast/many of the links switches, routers and servers there should be), routing design (where traffic should go), topological design (where to put new links) and security (authentication, VLAN's). In addition, students will tackle a series of example problems of network analysis and design of increasing complexity.
