High-performance data networking

The Internet plays a critical role in modern society, but the complexity of large-scale networks and the diversity of protocols make network management increasingly challenging. As networks become more programmable, the distinction between compute systems and network elements is blurring, leading to a paradigm shift in network operations.

The high-performance data networking course is an advanced networking course that will introduce you to the concept of network operations, programmability and management. The course will examine different networking protocols and techniques used across various organisational domains, from edge computing to Internet-scale systems. The course will cover essential topics such as Quality of Service, Internet architecture/organisation, and network measurements.
