Elective
3rd Cycle Studies
Recommended Prerequisites
Knowledge in the area of telecommunications networks at 2nd cycle level.
Teaching Methods
Weekly classes for tutorial guidance in order to complement and support the independent study of the students. Seminar classes with the aim of developing the skills of research, analysis and synthesis as well as problem solving in the area of this course.
Learning Outcomes
Acquisition of systematized high level knowledge on principles, models, and reference routing methods and algorithms in telecommunication networks.
Development of competencies of analysis, mathematical modeling and resolution of routing optimisation models in networks with different base technologies, in terms of network performance measures associated with the traffic carried and the management of the available network resources.
