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.
