Exam viewing
There will be an exam viewing on Monday 31st March in room E:3139, 14:00-15:00. At this time, you may come and view your exam paper and discuss with me any problems or ask about your marks. Complete exam solutions will be posted to the course homepage soon.
Materials allowed in the exam
Programmable calculators will be allowed in the exam as long as the memory is erased beforehand. None of the questions will require a programmable calculator so if yours is not programmable, it will also be fine. Only a calculator and writing materials can be taken into the exam - no notes or anything else. All formulae required will be provided. You also do not need to memorise the acronyms in the course glossary - any that are used will be given in their full form (e.g. "base station controller" not just "BSC").
Exam
The exam will be held Wednesday 12th March, 2-7pm in room MA10 A-B
Error in assignment
Please note there was an error in a diagram in the assignment. In Figure 2 the flow from node 1 to node 16 was listed incorrectly. This has now been updated, so please re-download the assignment PDF to obtain the new version.
Consultation hours 24/2 - Change of time
I will be at a workshop Monday 24/2, so consultation hours for this week will instead be held on Tuesday 25/2 9:00-11:00. Monday's lecture will be held as normal.
Guest Lecture 26th February
On Wednesday 26th February we will have a guest lecture from Anyfi Networks on Software Defined Networking. The lecture will be held in the usual Wednesday timeslot: 10:15 in E:B.
Assignment
The assignment will be released on Monday (earlier than previously planned as some of you requested this). The first submission will be due on Wednesday 19th March. You will then receive feedback on your submission and will have another week to make any changes before submitting your final version.The assignment will be based on the work you have been doing in the labs. It will consist of reading a paper and answering some discussion questions, and then implementing a simulation of a Jackson network and analysing the simulation results.
