AIMS AND OBJECTIVES OF THE COURSE:The aim of the course is to acquaint students with the basic principles, standards and tendencies of development in the field of computer networks. This will help them in future to professionally solve system tasks in the area of network communications.

DESCRIPTION OF THE COURSE:The course discuses the problems concerning design, building and application of computer networks. The lectures begin with introduction to co m puter networks , principles of building, historical development and their contemporary classification. Open system interconnection model of ISO is presented. Teaching course includes basic principles of building and functioning of Local Area Networks (LAN) illustrated by practical technical solutions in LAN Ethernet. The lectures on the most popular in the world computer network Internet present its basic characteristics, principles of functioning and application. The laboratory work helps to better rationalization of lecture material and contribute to formation of practical skills.
