|---|---|
| THE COURSE HAS THE TWOFOLD PURPOSE OF: I) ILLUSTRATING THE BASIC METHODOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF TELECOMMUNICATION NETWORKS; II) APPLYING THE TECHNIQUES PRESENTED DURING THE COURSE TO PROBLEMS OF PRACTICAL INTERESTS. KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING - UNDERSTANDING OF THE MAIN METHODOLOGIES AND TECHNIQUES USED IN THE CONTEXT OF TELECOMMUNICATION NETWORKS. - KNOWLEDGE OF THE MAIN NETWORK ARCHITECTURES, COMMUNICATION PROTOCOLS AND QOS PARAMETERS. APPLIED KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING - ABILITY TO EXAMINE SPECIFIC CHARACTERISTICS OF A TLC NETWORK, BASED ON REQUIREMENTS SUCH AS TRAFFIC VOLUME, QOS, COST. - ABILITY TO DESIGN SIMPLE TELECOMMUNICATION NETWORKS. - ABILITY TO APPLY TECHNIQUES AND ALGORITHMS FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF SPECIFIC NETWORK FUNCTIONS (E.G., NETWORK MODEL SIMULATION, NFV AND SDN PARADIGMS, TRAFFIC ANALYSIS). |
| Prerequisites | |
|---|---|
| MATHEMATICS, PROBABILITY THEORY, FUNDAMENTALS OF DIGITAL COMMUNICATIONS. |

| Teaching Methods | |
|---|---|
| LECTURES PROVIDING THE METHODOLOGICAL BACKGROUND, COMPUTER-BASED DEMONSTRATIONS AND PROJECT WORKS, CLASSROOM EXERCISES AND HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENTS. |
| Verification of learning | |
|---|---|
| THE FINAL EXAM IS AIMED TO EVALUATE: KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING SKILLS ABOUT THE TOPICS AND CONCEPTS ADDRESSED DURING THE COURSE; THE ANALYSIS AND DESIGN OF DATA NETWORKS AND COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS; LEARNING AND PRESENTATION SKILLS, INCLINATION TO CRITICAL REASONING. STUDENTS WILL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY OF SHOWING SUCH SKILLS BY DEVELOPING A PROJECT WORK ASSIGNED DURING THE COURSE. THE EVALUATION IS BASED ON AN ORAL EXAMINATION, DEALING WITH BOTH THE ASSIGNED PROJECT WORK AND THE TOPICS ADDRESSED DURING THE COURSE. |
