Learning objectives

The course aims to provide the student with the theoretical and practical knowledge necessary for the design of a computing or communication system with particular attention to the complexity of implementation and the management of network resources. At the end of the course, the students will have to demonstrate that they understand the theoretical and practical notions necessary for the realization of an algorithm in digital form, that they are able to identify the architectural characteristics of a computing system according to the requirements of the task to be performed, that they are able to use digital specification languages and automatic tools for design and simulation, that they understand the process of transformation and routing of information from source to destination, recognizing the role of network protocols, and that they are able to write distributed applications by choosing the most appropriate network service. The students will also have to demonstrate that they have the necessary skills to continue their studies independently in the field of digital design and communication networks.

Prerequisites and basic notions

As a first-year course, no particular prerequisites are required other than knowledge of the minimum knowledge (i.e., saperi minimi).

Program

-----------------

Didactic methods

The theory will be organized in lectures, exercises and self-assessment activities.
The laboratory will be structured in practical exercises on the computer.

Learning assessment procedures

Theoretical and laboratory skills are assessed through written tests. During the course, two intermediate tests will be administered at the end of each semester. After the end of the course, the written test will be unified and will focus on the topics of both semesters.

Students with disabilities or specific learning disorders (SLD), who intend to request the adaptation of the exam, must follow the instructions given HERE

Evaluation criteria

To pass the exam, the students must show that:
- they are able to design a digital device,
- they have understood the principles of computer architectures,
- they have understood the principles of computer networks and cybersecurity,
- they are able to apply the acquired knowledge to solve application scenarios described by means of exercises, questions, and projects.

Criteria for the composition of the final grade

Arithmetic average of the intermediate written tests, or grade of the single written test.
