Goal of This Course
Understand the underling math for analyzing networks — Markovprocesses.
Understand the math theory for networks — queuing theory
Understand various aspects of networking — stability and scheduling
Study the math theory of some typical networks — Internet, TCP/IP andP2P networks.
We do not introduce detailed networking protocols. We are almostmathematicians.
