Students who have completed this course are able to:
- demonstrate the differences between ISO/OSI and TCP/IP network models, explain the essence of these models,
- analyze the task of network layer with IP protocol,
- identify and interpret several levels of address translation used in IP networks,
- explain the principle of protocols used for redundancy of access to default gateway,
- explain the essence of multicast data transfer,
- explain every aspect of IPv6 protocol and related issues,
- assess the suitability of transport layer protocols for particular applications,
- explain issues of autonomous systems existence,
- apply multi-level routing with BGP protocol,
- describe the fundamental types of distributed systems and the essence of middleware layer,
- describe and explain the general design of systems and protocols,
- explain issues of communication and synchronization among processes,
- design and analyze own communication protocol.

Students who are going to attend this course should be able to: - use several numerical systems and conversions among them, - explain and use elementary units which are common in the area of information and communication technologies (ICT), e.g. data size, transmission speed, - use elementary terms from the ICT area, e.g. operating system, memory, process, - describe the architecture of basic network models, i.e. TCP/IP and ISO/OSI, - describe the basic application protocols for user data transfer from the TCP/IP suite, - list routing protocols used on local-area level.

Not applicable.

Teaching methods include lectures and practical laboratories. Course is taking advantage of e-learning (Moodle) system. Students have to write a single project/assignment during the course.

Up to 30 points are awarded for work in laboratories (points are obtained for individual tasks, tests and individual project).
Up to 70 points are awarded for the written examination.

1. Widening the knowledge of the well-known network model TCP/IP. Network and transport layer, task of network layer with IP protocol.
2. Address Translation in IP networks (ARP, DHCP, NAT, DNS, mDNS, LLMNR).
3. Protocols for redundant access to default gateway, multicast data transfer.
4. IPv6 protocol suite (features, deployment, datagram, addresses, ICMPv6 responsibilities, DHCPv6, mobility, multicast, routing).
5. Autonomous systems, BGP protocol, multihoming, peering.
6. Distributed systems.
7. Processes and systems (design, description, parallel problems, synchronization, communication, data exchange, design of protocol).

Not applicable.

The goal of the course is to provide students with comprehensive orientation in the field of advanced communication techniques, especially on the network layer and application layer, in distributed systems, and also with specific issues such as parallel data processing.

Attendance at laboratories is compulsory, properly justified absence can be made up after prior arrangement with the instructor.
