PLANNED COURSES

• Network tools and utilities
  This highly practical course is intended for those interested in evaluating performance of operational networks. This concerns many aspects of network components starting from active and passive traffic measurement software to wired/wireless network planning tools to network emulators and simulators, etc. This course would greatly complement the Teletraffic courses set providing hands-on practical experience. The content of the course is already specified and the material is currently collected. The expected time of implementation is Spring 2013.
• Dimensioning networks: theory versus best practices
  This is another practical course that is planned to be established in the next few years. The main theme of this course would be practical planning of telecommunications networks. The reason for offering this course is a great deal of separation between theoretical understanding of the dimensioning process and practical ways to do this. Dimensioning buffer spaces for TCP traffic using well-known rule-of-thumb, correct overprovisioning of networks using elements of the overflow theory, bufferless routing and forwarding in the core of a network are just few questions that are expected to be addressed. Yet another aim of this course is to shed the light on the magic words “best practices” explaining their roots and theoretical basis. In the perfect world a student will get acquainted with these techniques and should understand what kind of theoretical concepts these techniques are replied upon. The content of the course is currently under development. Expected run spring 2014.
