We considered delivering the course around a collection of assignments that focus on some of the areas of networking that we think every student taking a networking course should be exposed to.
- A client server based application. Examples:
- Web server or proxy
- FTP
- Video streaming (RTP, RTSP) RFC 2326
- A map reduce type problem
- tackles the problem of scale
- An application built upon a distributed key/value store
- A mobile device application that uses one or more networked data sources
- i.e. some sort of mashup.
Issues to address in the teaching:
- Fairness
- Efficiency
- Flow Control
- Reliability
