S-38.130 Licenciate course on Telecommunications Technology


Course Topic: In the Spring 1997 the course will continue dealing with routing in circuit switched networks, mainly the traditional telephone network and to some extent broadband networks also. The aim is to go through in detail performance analysis methods for static/dynamic routing, optimal routing and also the dimensioning of networks operating under certain routing principles. The understanding of these methods gives important insight into the design choices of modern routing protocols in circuit switched networks.

The larger part of the course will be based on the analysis of the traditional telephone network using A. Girard's "Routing and Dimensioning ..." book as the basis. The extension of these methods to broadband networks will be covered in the latter part of the course. The exact scope of the course depends on the number of participants in the course.

Status of the course: Licentiate course on Telecommunications Technology can be included in post-graduate studies on Telecommunications Technology (major or minor in S38). The credits can also be included in graduate studies on telecommunications technology.

To whom: The course is primarily meant for post-graduate students of telecommunications technology having a special intrest in understanding the performance analysis of routing and dimensioning in circuit switched networks. Others having similar intrests are of course equally welcome. The course is a continuation of what we covered last term on routing algorithms, but people who want to join now, are also invited.

Course completion: The course will be arranged as a seminar. Each participant will give a presentation on his/her subject from the course's book(s), hand out 2 homework excercises from his/her subject, present the solutions to the homework excercises, examine the excercises others have done and, of course, do the homework given by others at the presentations. At least 50% of the homework excercises must be done to complete the course.

The presentations need not be in the form of a properly written article. It is sufficient that each presenter prepares good enough overhead material to support his/her presentation, which he/she can then distribute at the presentation. The reason is that there is no need to copy material word for word from the text book into one's article, since everyone can read the specifics from the book, when necessary.

Organisation: The first meeting of the course will be held on Wednesday 29.01.1997 at 16.00 in Otaniemi, TKK, faculty of Electrical Engineering, room H401. From there on the seminars will be held weekly on Wednesdays at 16.00 in room H401.

Credits: This course will give you 3-5 points depending on the final scope of the course and successful completion of course requirements. The performance will be measured in the following manner:


			Presentation	0.5
			Calculus	0.5
