Lecture bibliography
Lecture material to read
The lecture slides that will be made available during the course are very important for the course and the written exam. However, you will of course need to read chapters in text books and papers to fully understand the slides and to be able to explain, write short summaries (e.g., writing about things not treated on the slides), give examples etc, on the written exam. Below, you find a specification of literature that would fit this purpose but there is of course other possible literature available too. Moreover, you might need to check more basic literature, e.g. if it was a while since you took a basic data communication or computer networking course. At the beginning of the course, you will get more specific reading advices and rules for the exam. Actually, a large portion of the course (if not the whole course) can be covered by literature that can be downloaded from the Internet, our library databases, or is available through special permissions.
