TLMG1025 Telematics Engineering Required

Multimedia Networks and Quality of Service Taught 7 times (2021–2023)

This advanced-level theoretical and practical proffesional training course explains the architectures of data networks and applications oriented toward the transmission of multimedia content using network quality of service (QoS) parameters. Additionally, the concepts of performance in a multimedia network and traffic engineering for traffic optimization in different data networks are presented. Finally, the algorithms for traffic control in a data network and the protocols involved in multimedia applications are exposed.
