7. Objectives, learning outcomes and obtained knowledge During the course students will learn network planning, design, operation, and maintenance together with measurement tasks and methods of infocommunication networks, with particular emphasis on modern trends and practical aspects too.
Topics: Design and configuration issues with planning and optimization methods, reliability, survivability, protection and recovery requirements and methods, development trends. 
8. Synopsis Backbone Network Design

    Network design in general (overview, input/output of the design, design goals, trends, cost functions)
    Description of traffic (telephony network traffic, traffic matrix estimation)
    Network topology and topology models
    Design methods, tools and algorithms
        Linear programming, network flow problems
        Heuristic methods: Taboo search, simulated annealing, genetic algorithms, simulated allocation
    Protection and Recovery
        Availability (basic concepts, serial - parallel elements)
        Dedicated and shared protection (self-healing rings, Shared Risk Link Group, Suurballe's algorithm)
        Shared Protection (one-, two-step method), restoration and protection
        Multi-layer protection, traffic management

Access networks planning

    Typical design topics
        Separation of traffic with different solutions
        Scalability
    Cooperation with the First Mile Technologies
    Metro Ethernet, Multilayer switching
    Topologies, devices
    QoS guarantees
    Traffic Management
    Protection and Recovery
    Wireless access networks (WLAN, WiMax) design
        RF spectrum management, fixed and dynamic channel allocation in order to avoid interference
        Capacity planning strategies to accommodate access points, indoor and outdoor environment

Future Internet Technologies

    Internet protocol weaknesses and proposed solutions
9. Method of instruction Two hours of classroom lecture weekly and two hours of classroom practice every two weeks.The lectures are complemented by practical case studies and design examples on classroom practices.

10. Assessment a. During the semester: one mid-term exam, at least with grade 2, to get signature. The result does not count into the final exam.
b. In the examination period: written exam
c. Pre-exam: a written examination; condition: at least grade 3 for the mid-term exam
11. Recaps

Failed or missed mid-term exam can be repeated once in the supplemental period.

12. Consultations On demand consultation after the lessons, or by appointment.
