About
Examination arrangement
Course content
Data communication: Standardisation and layered communication. Protocols on application layers, transport layers, network layers, link layers and transmission technology on physical layers. About network structures and the operation of network components.
Programming: Threads and synchronisation. Sockets (UDP and TCP). Asynchronous solutions. Higher level network API(s). Safety.
Learning outcome
Knowledge
The candidate must:
- be able to explain basic principles and architecture of data communication
- be able to account for protocols and their functionality in layered data communication
- be able to account for network structures and network components
- be able to explain why one uses threaded programs as well as the necessity of synchronisation mechanisms between these
- be able to account for the advantages and disadvantages of selected network APIs and can make a reasoned assessment of what is most appropriate in given contexts
Skills
The candidate must:
- be able to analyse data traffic and use a selection of auxiliary tools to analyse the condition of machines and networks (D)
- be able to create well-functioning threaded programs (D)
- be able to create both unconnected and connection-oriented network solutions (D)
General competence
The candidate must be able to communicate with professionals about network protocols and network solutions
Learning methods and activities
Lectures / workshops and exercises. The programming exercises must be presented to the practice teacher for approval, the others must be submitted. The course is divided into two parts:
- Data communication: In this section, all exercises must be approved in order to sit for the exam. The exercises must be submitted for assessment.
- Network programming: In this section there are mainly practical programming exercises. All must be approved and approval takes place upon presentation to the practice teacher during practice hours at the computer lab.
Compulsory assignments
- Øvinger i Datakommunikasjon
Further on evaluation
Assessment method: The final grade is set on the basis of two assessment elements. Both of these must be passed separately. There is a right of appeal in each of the two parts.
Written exam, 3 hours. Grade scale A-F. This counts 1/2 of the total grade.
Folder assessment (programming) counts 1/2 of the grade. Here the grade is calculated as follows:
- With all programming exercises approved without moves, the grade C is given.
- A subtraction is made if an exercise is submitted too late or failed and must be done again. For two subtractions, the sub-grade is reduced by one. For four subtractions, the sub-grade is reduced by two, etc.
- Those who want to improve the grade (to A or B) on the portfolio assessment must complete a programming case. This must be presented to the subject teacher and defended on an individual basis. Programming cases can only be taken by those who have achieved C on the folder in the first place.
Aids:
Exam: no aids
Folder: all aids
The re-sit exam is in August. Re-sit exams can be arranged as oral exams. Repetition of the folder takes place at the next completion of the course.
Continuation and voluntary repetition/improvement can be carried out for some partial assessments without all partial assessments in a subject having to be taken up again
