Fall 1995

Table of Contents
Course Title: CS395T: Multimedia Communication and
Databases
Instructor: Professor Harrick M. Vin
Semester: Fall 1995
Meeting Time: Friday 10:00 - 1:00, TAY 3.144
Graduate standing, familiarity with basic concepts in network
protocols and operating system design, and the CS395T: Multimedia
Systems course.
This is an advanced course in multimedia systems. Topics to be
discussed in this course include: transport protocol design for
multimedia, routing and multicasting, mobile networking and
multimedia, operating system support for multimedia, and multimedia
databases. An emphasis will be placed on current design issues and
research topics.
A collection of research articles will be made available by the
instructor.
Students will be required to read a number of papers in the area
as well as present and discuss them in class. Grades will be
determined based on paper presentations and class participation.
Students enrolling for a letter grade will be required to submit a
paper and/or carry out a project.
Friday 2:00 - 3:00, TAY 4.115B
