Brexit & Principles of Communications

i'd just like to say that graph theory, compact routing, BGP, multicast, and the Erlang equation for call blocking probability have absolutely no bearing on whether brexit is a bad or good idea. The latter is entirely obvious, whereas the stuff I teach in this course is (hopefully) subtle, complex, and useful.

Principles of Communications -- Michaelmas Term 2017 - Oct 27, L10

By today, we've reached the outlimits of routing, having gone from compact, through centralized, via policy, multicast and mobile, to sticky random (DAR).

nb. material on information centric networking skipped/elided - not examinable:-)
plus didn't cover the tiny bit of mobile ip (but we do mesh networks later:)

Next week (from mon oct 30), we make a start on error, flow, and congestion control.

By friday, oct 20, should have covered most of the inter-domain routing material including key core attributes, decision process, what BGP really computes. Roughly on schedule. Have also put supervisor material up for people to start using...
