OBJECTIVES
ﾂ
In
this course students will learn about the basics of operating systems, file
management and basics of RTOS, networking algorithms, protocols on which modern
networks are based. This covers networks from low level protocol design up to
TCP/IP. Upon completion of the course, students should have a good understanding
of the main networking problems and solution algorithms.
