CSE 659 (Section 2) Seminar on Internetworking Software

Description

This is a one-credit seminar course on internetworking software. In this seminar, we will continue the study of the architecture and implementation of several network software systems. In other words, we are interested in understanding how high-level network-based applications are built out of the low-level protocols. However, this semester we will focus on two types of systems: Multi-user interactive systems and Internet payment systems. The systems we will study include network games, VRML, audio/video transport, DIS-based systems, digital cash, and electronic commerce systems. In terms of technical areas, this seminar will explore the interaction between networking and graphics, security, and multimedia. Students who decide to take this course must be committed to do a high-quality presentation of his or her assignment. In particular, a handout of at least one page must be prepared beforehand to be distributed in the class. As usual, auditors are NOT welcome. The first class is 9/8/95. We meet from 5 to 6:30 PM in the conference every Friday.
