EP2970 Simulering av kommunikationsnät 7,5 hp

·         Principles and methods for simulation of computer networks and data communications. Random number generation, removing transients, variance reduction and confidence intervals. Benefits and limitations of simulations, validation and verification aspects.·         Tools for computer network simulation·         Simulation of queuing models in communication networks ·         Simulation of functions and performance of protocols and data traffic on the data link, network, transport, and application levels in data communications ·         Evaluation and improvement of models in network and data communications ·         Simulation technique as an engineering tool for analyzing, planning, dimensioning, monitoring, and building real operating networks. The use of measurement data and configuration data from real networks in simulation ·         A major project applied to computer networks and data communications

The aim of the course is to introduce simulations and use simulation tools to analyze computer networks, protocols, and data traffic.After completing the course the students should be able to:

• Understand the foundations of computer network simulations
• Use simulations tools to analyse computer networks and data communications
• Understand the interaction between simulation, planning, dimensioning, design, and implementation of computer networks

Communication networks I and II or equivalent courses.

Special material.

När kurs inte längre ges har student möjlighet att examineras under ytterligare två läsår.

• RED1 - Inlämningsuppgift, 4,5 hp, betygsskala: A, B, C, D, E, FX, F
• TEN1 - Tentamen, 3,0 hp, betygsskala: A, B, C, D, E, FX, F

Examinator beslutar, baserat på rekommendation från KTH:s handläggare av stöd till studenter med funktionsnedsättning, om eventuell anpassad examination för studenter med dokumenterad, varaktig funktionsnedsättning.

Examinator får medge annan examinationsform vid omexamination av enstaka studenter.

Written exam (TEN1: 3 hp): grades A-F
Lab assignments (LAB1; 4.5 hp): grades A-F
Final grades: A-F
