Lecture 25: Revision and Exam Preview

If You Enjoyed It...

Finally, the advertising.

Computer Networks is, more than anything, an overview subject. If you enjoyed this subject and you think you'd like to know more, you should investigate the following LTU, Bendigo IT subjects:

INT22DC: Data Communications

Offered in semester 2, taken by Phil Rice
Covers the "bottom half" of the protocol stack in far more detail.
Overlaps slightly with Computer Networks.

INT32WEN: Web Engineering

Offered in Semester 2, taken by yours truly, Phil Scott
Extends the Computer Networks stuff on the Technology of Electronic Commerce (mainly CGI programing).
Extensive programming required: you will learn all about CGI programming in Perl and various related technologies.

INT33ENS: Encryption and Network Security

Offered in Semester 2, taken by Christopher Lenard from the Department of Mathematics (Encryption), and (probably) Phil Scott.
Extends the Computer Networks sections on encryption and security of Internet-connected computer systems.

INT33WS: Web Services

Offered in Semester 2, taken by Mal Sutherland.
Extends the stuff mentioned in Lecture 24 of this subject, and follows on directly from Web Development. New subject in 2002, and likely to be offered at quite an advanced level..

INT33INW: Internetworking

Offered in Semester 2, taken by Phil Rice.
Extends the stuff mentioned in this subject and in Data Communications, both of which are pre-requisites. New subject in 2002..

Now the REAL advertising... This probably seems like "just another subject" while you're at Uni, and it is. But the career opportunities in this area are huge. Do not underestimate the value of what you've learnt this semester -- it could be worth heaps to you!
