Course Objectives

Classification of Data Communication topics will be carried out within the framework of layered architecture of computer networking. The layers that contain data communication matters will be studied together with their hardware and software components. The physical properties of data communication media, data encoding techniques, solution to flow control and error control problems will be investigated together with routing problem.

Learning Outcomes
