Certificate Program
Course Description and Prerequisites:
This class covers an in-depth survey of protocols, algorithms, and network architectures for developing multi-media content and communications. The focus of the course material in this class is on the signaling aspects of communications; the protocols for media transfer are covered in sufficient details so the participant can evaluate how they work with the signaling protocols. Participants will implement an call signaling Internet service using the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). Participants will be divided into groups, some of which will write a SIP proxy server, others a SIP client, and still others a SIP registrar. These implementations must work with each other, as one of the important lessons to be learned is how to take a protocol description and realize it in source code. Participants are expected to be familiar with the VoIP protocol stacks, which include SIP, SDP and RTP. Proficiency in the C or Java programming language is assumed, as a main component of the course is a semester-long programming project.
Students must have some previous programming experience to enroll in this class.
