CS 339 Networking and Data Communication
Students study networks and data communication concentrating on the Internet model. This is a laboratory-based course that includes projects implemented on both Unix and Windows machines. Topics such as the Internet protocol stack, hardware, routing, circuit-switching and packet-switching networks, multiplexing, error handling and wifi are among those studied. Students use packet sniffing tools to design and simulate networks
