Course material

Notes about the course material (by Prof. Kantola)

When learning the course material, you are warned about relying solely onto the slides that are used during lectures (I have seen this happen too often in the past). The slides are meant to accompany the speach during the lecture. Later you can recall the lecture by looking at the slides if you happenend to be present and not too much time has passed. Otherwise, you can just count on being able to deduce the scope of the course based on the slides. Ok, I admit that people who have product development and system design experience in the area of Networking Technology may find that the slides have enough clues for them to guess the rest. For a regular student, the real content have to be found in any other sources that you can lay your hands on. Some of them are referenced in the slides. Some other sources may be needed also, if something stays unclear. Even if you listenend to the lecture, you may find that you did not understand some crucial point and were too shy to ask, so you will again need to look for the real sources!

Usually, the most precise sources on signaling are the original sources, i.e. the specifications. You should not be afraid to pull them from the Internet (3G or IETF) or from elsewhere. As a rule, you do not need to read the fine print in the specifications, reading just the general sections and scanning the rest will be enough to gain the level of understanding expected on this course. Some may find that the books are easier to read. Fine, you can use them also. Nevertheless, a networking specialist (I hope you intend to be one at some point) is able to work with specifications, so you might as well start getting used to reading them on this course.
