Advanced Networking and Future Internet
The course gives an overview of advanced networking technologies and concepts, which are nowadays used in addition to and/or on top of the Internet Protocol (IP). The course covers mechanisms to support and enhance IP routing, such as as queue management within routers, traffic engineering to avoid overload and to balance traffic within networks as well as advanced forwarding mechanisms for routers. The Future Internet is expected to carry cloud computing and (real-time) audio/video streaming applications to a large extent. Networking concepts such as Software-Defined Networking and Overlay/Peer-to-Peer Networks are emerging to support those applications. The lecture will also address disruptive networking paradigms such as Information-Centric Networking aiming to replace the current IP-based Internet.
