Sample Course Outlines
You can use this book mainly in two different ways.
First, the book is designed to serve as a self-study book for
professionals. You can pick and choose what you want to read. In most
cases, each chapter can be read independently while in some cases
there's dependency on one or more chapters. In fact, each chapter
starts with a short 'reading guideline' so that you can quickly find
out any
dependency on other chapters (and how much).
Second, the book is designed to teach a number of different
courses, either in a classroom or in a professional setting (short
courses). Instructors, who plan to use in a class, may request an examination
copy of the book by registering through
Elsevier's textbook site.
Graduate course outlines shown below assume that students
already have an introductory course on networking.
Below, we give some sample course
