This is a level 3 digital communications course, focussing on LAN issues and TCP/IP Internets. These pages are used by students at the University of Aberdeen, and by students at a number of other institutions. If you wish to refer to these pages on a course you teach, please email me first.
The course was first run in 1996, when it was given the course code EG3561. Since then, it has been revised many times. Web pages are available describing key issues, and are supplemented by documents and slide collections which may be down-loaded.
This is a level 2 course, which originally covered the integration of C and assembly language, and used this to illustrate some basic computing concepts. The current course (EG2069) has a set of web pages and does differ from the EG2068 course. Some slides are also available for this replacement course.
Selected information is available introducing the MPEG-2 Standard and simple applications of DVB. More detailed pages are available on the background to Digital Video Broadcasting and its integration with Internet Services.
