Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

• Mobilise a structured set of scientific knowledge and skills and specialised techniques in order to carry out computer and management engineering missions, using their expertise and adaptability.
• Master and appropriately mobilise knowledge, models, methods and techniques specific to computer management engineering.

Learning Outcomes of UE

AA-Computer Networks
Identify the various components of a network; understand the role and operation of each element and evaluate their advantages and limitations; understand the advantage of the various tools available for the analysis of the networks performances.
AA-Analog and Digiatal Communications
Understand the status of the current telecommunication industry; To set qualitatively the role of each element in the global transmission chain; To identify the perturbators sources (channel, noises, distortions); to estimate and compare the different modulation (analogue and digital) and coding options in a concrete case;  to acquire a long lasting 'telecommunication spirit' and orders of magnitude.
 

UE Content: description and pedagogical relevance

AA-Computer Networks
Architecture of commutation networks (paquet switching versus circuit switching); Internet; Applications protocols (HTTP, DNS, DHCP, ...); Transport protocol (UDP, TCP); Interconnexion (IP, ICMP, routing protocols); Data link (LAN 802.3, 802.2, 802.11, switches, WAN, point-to-point link).
AA-Analog and Digiatal Communications
Telecommunications introduction; Constitutive elements of a transmission chain; Analogue telecommunications; Baseband or bandpass digital telecommunications; channel capacity; Multiplexing.

Prior Experience

Not applicable

Type(s) and mode(s) of Q2 UE assessment

• Written examination - Face-to-face

Q2 UE Assessment Comments

The evaluation procedure will be detailed in the first sessions of the AA.

Method of calculating the overall mark for the Q2 UE assessment

Overall score for UE with weighting 2/3 for 'Computer Networks' and 1/3 for 'Analog and Digital Communications'
However, this is only applied if both AAs are strictly above 7/20. If this is not the case, the UE rating will correspond to the lower rating of the two AAs.

Type(s) and mode(s) of Q3 UE assessment

• Written examination - Face-to-face

Q3 UE Assessment Comments

The evaluation procedure will be detailed in the first sessions of the AA.

Method of calculating the overall mark for the Q3 UE assessment

Overall score for UE with weighting 2/3 for 'Computer Networks' and 1/3 for 'Analog and Digital Communications'
However, this is only applied if both AAs are strictly above 7/20. If this is not the case, the UE rating will correspond to the lower rating of the two AAs.
