Course Rationale: In the current information and mobility age, ubiquitous access to information is a reality
and networked systems have become part of human existence. Lots of opportunities are growing day by day
both in the industry and academic research in this area. To grab those opportunities, students must get a
good knowledge of hardware and software interactions in complex networks, from the physical transmission
of signals, through the protocols required for the safe transmission of data, to the end-to-end services built
on the communications backbone. This course is designed to provide a stepping stone for students to learn
the basic concepts of computer networks.

Course Objectives:
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to do the following:
1. Build an understanding of the fundamental concepts of computer networking.
2. Master the basic taxonomy and terminology of the computer networking area.
3. Demonstrate a familiarity with contemporary issues in networking technologies.
4. Analyze different network tools, network programming and their performance.

Course Learning Outcomes:


1. Identify and describe the building blocks of Internet (Network Edge, Network Core) and apply the
concepts of layered architecture (OSI and TCP/IP) in assessing the placement of network devices,
protocols and services in communication networks.
2. Demonstrate the understanding of the client/server model and key application layer protocols.
3. Compare the services provided by the UDP/TCP transport layer protocols and explain the
mechanisms used to provide a reliable data transport service on an unreliable IP network.
4. Explain the role of routing, congestion and flow control, naming and internetworking in the context of a
global network such as the Internet, and the common protocols used to implement these functions.
5. Explain and compare data link layer services and multiple access techniques and apply them to both
wired and wireless local area networks.
