What is Csci5221 about?

Second “Graduate-Level” Networking Course



Assume a first-course “Introduction to Networking”

We’ll learn about
– Fundamental networking principles and techniques
– Advanced networking mechanisms, protocols and practices
•
•
•
•

foundational material: long half life
deeper understanding of R& D issues in today’s Internet
mix of theory and practice
case studies
Who is it for?


primarily for graduate students who want to learn more about
networking and systems
undergraduate students encouraged, but special permission

A Few Words on Course Projects

Projects will be in groups!


4-5 students per group, depending on enrollment
Project I: Window Mobile Phone Programming Project


You’ll be learning C#;
Each group: one of several suggested project ideas/topics;



10 (?) Window mobile smart phones will be provided for you; and
free Azure account per project
If you prefer to program for Android smart phones (or Apple iPhones)
that should be fine also -- provided you have access to such phones


You may create your own project ideas, subject to approval by us
CSE Dept. may have several Android phones for loan
Project II: “research-oriented” networking project



multi-path routing, fast rerouting, etc. based on VIRO
VIRO: a new routing platform we have developed for future large-scale
enterprise networks
Programming in C++ (can be Java, or Python)
