COMPUTER SCIENCE:
Data Networks and Distributed Systems
This seminar continues the study of data communications as applied to
networks and distributed systems. The fundamental concepts of
layered architecture are re-examined from the network point of view
to design and analyze the performance of such systems. Emphasis is
placed on the understanding of delay models and queuing systems as
applied to data networks. Examples of delay analysis with ARQ
systems, multiplexing, reservations, and polling are considered with
several distribution models. Other topics involve multiple access
communication, routing in data networks, flow control, remote
procedure calling, implementation of file services, and shared files in
distributed systems.
