The lecture notes cover the following topics,
Fundamentals (OSI Reference Model, Coding, Ethernet), Data Link Control (Flow Control, Error Control, HDLC, PPP), Internet Protocol ...
Dynamic synchronous Transfer Mode (DTM) is a new protocol suite based on synchronous fast circuit switching. The DTM network is based on bandwidth reservation and supports dynamic...
Two classic categories of models exist for computer networks: network information flow and network of queues. The network information flow model appropriately captures the multi-ho...
Any real-time interactive video coding algorithm used over the Internet needs to be able to cope with packet loss, since the existing error recovery mechanisms are not suitable fo...
—We present an information-theoretic framework for network management for recovery from nonergodic link failures. Building on recent work in the field of network coding, we desc...
