Course Overview

The objective of this lecture is to introduce performance modeling of complex distributed systems.

Server dimensioning of planned systems
Quality of service guarantees in distributed systems
Resource management in distributed systems

The focus will be on different analytical methods for performance modeling, namely stochastic network calculus (SNC) with

Moment generating functions (MGFs)
Tail bounds

Course Overview

This course covers aspects and principles of network security. Based on many attacks on common technologies used in communication systems, this course illustrates how things can go wrong and provides basic measures to protect a network from mistakes committed in the past. It covers furthermore the fundamental concepts of security and security problems.

Areas covered in this lecture:

Physical and Link Layer Security
Network Layer Security
Transport Layer Security
Application Layer Security

Please note that it is strongly recommended to attend communication systems first since it provides the background knowledge for this lecture.
