Introductory Explanation
The CS Department replaced the old undergraduate Computer Networks
course, CS4514, with two courses CS3516 and CS4516
because the breadth of computer networking technology no longer fits
within a single seven-week course.
CS3516 introduces the important topics in computer networks
in a top-down manner while CS4516 provides more in-depth
information and puts emphasis on Wireless Local Area Networks,
Wireless Sensor Networks and network security issues.
