Next week, we wrap up and I'll summarise what was covered and is examinable.

Principles of Communications - week 6/L11 21/11/2019

Finished Control Theory, Started Scheduling.

Further notes on control theory here .
Things to remember - we don't do the Laplace transfom to solve the sysem - we do it to see what different controllers might do in terms of stability and limits. Also note the composition rules for sysems in the s-transform are really simple....the actual controller is to be implemented "back" in the time domain of course...

Scheduling - to remember :

• conservation law
• fairness
• round robin...

Principles of Communications - week 5/L9 1/511/2019

we've started on flow control and control theory, but then had to cut over to data center networks due to calendar clash. Next week (nov 19&21) will finish up on control theory&start on scheduling.
