The documentation of the subject will be mostly in English. Poden haver-hi documents en castellà i català, però l'idioma principal serà anglès.
Therefore, the student must be able to read English correctly.

B3_Students have the ability to gather and interpret relevant data (usually within their area of study), to make judgments that include reflection on relevant social, scientific or ethical issues
B5_That students have developed those learning skills necessary to undertake further studies with a high degree of autonomy
EFB5_Knowledge of the structure, organization, operation and interconnection of information systems, the fundamentals of their programming and their application for solving engineering problems
T1_That students know a third language, which will be preferably English, with an adequate level of oral and written form, according to the needs of the graduates in each degree
T2_That students have the ability to work as members of an interdisciplinary team either as one more member, or performing management tasks in order to contribute to developing projects with pragmatism and a sense of responsibility, making commitments taking into account the available resources
In general, this subject covers the following descriptors specified for the subject to which it belongs (Architecture, Operating Systems and Computer Networks):
1.- Introduction to networks (packet networks, architecture of OSI and TCP / IP protocols, standardization bodies)
2.- Network applications (client-server paradigm, document exchange (web, HTTP, FTP), e-mail (SMTP, protocols), representation of structured information (web, XML))
3.- IP networks (protocol, routing, ARP, address translation, DNS, firewalls, private networks)
4.- TCP and sockets (protocols, ARQ, flow control, UDP, TCP, API sockets)
5.- Local area networks (architecture and typologies, Ethernet, wireless networks)
6.- Advanced concepts of TCP / IP protocols, Internet service providers (ISPs) routing algorithms and multimedia protocols
7.- Security in computer networks: protection, security protocols, e-commerce, application management
8.- Local and network services
For the follow-up of the subject the student works with his personal computer (laptop) that will have to take to each and every one of the classes
This subject has methodological and digital resources to make possible its continuity in non-contact mode in the case of being necessary for reasons related to the Covid-19. In this way, the achievement of the same knowledge and skills that are specified in this teaching plan will be ensured.
The Tecnocampus will make available to teachers and students the digital tools needed to carry out the course, as well as guides and recommendations that facilitate adaptation to the non-contact mode.
At a general level, this subject contributes to the following learning outcomes specified for the subject to which it belongs (Architecture, Operating Systems and Computer Networks):
1.- Ensure that an organization's ICT systems function properly, are secure, and are properly installed, documented, customized, maintained, updated, and replaced, and that the organization's people receive proper ICT support.
2.- Design solutions that integrate hardware, software and communications technologies (and ability to develop specific systems software solutions) for distributed systems and ubiquitous computing devices
3.- Design, implement and configure networks and services
4.- Development of team projects
5.- Understand and use effectively manuals, product specifications and other technical information written in English
At a more specific level, at the end of the course the student must be able to:
1.- (LO1) Understand the operation of the DHCP protocol
2.- (RA2) Understand the operation of the HTTP protocol in its various versions
3.- (LO3) Understand the operation of the SMTP protocol in its various versions
4.- (LO4) Understand the operation of the POP protocol in its various versions
5.- (LO5) Understand the operation of the IMAP protocol in its various versions
6.- (LO6) Understand the operation of the DNS protocol in its various versions
7.- (LO7) Understand the operation of load balancing systems
8.- (LO8) Understand the QoS mechanisms for real-time communications
9.- (LO9) Understand transport protocols for real-time communications
10.- (LO10) Understand the protocols of upper layers for real-time communications
11.- (LO11) Have the ability to analyze networks and topologies (detect problems, errors, improve efficiency ...)
Guided learning hours include:
The final objective is that the student acquires the knowledge of the subject through activities which can be small as more complete projects where the knowledge that is acquired throughout the course takes part. Within the hours of autonomous learning are considered the hours to prepare the theoretical classes, the hours to study and consolidate the acquired knowledge, the hours to prepare the work of the practices and, finally, the hours that the student can dedicate to increase and complement their knowledge on the subject.
This course, due to the situation generated by COVID, some of the large group sessions will be held in hybrid format: face-to-face and online (via streaming). This will allow students to rotate to face-to-face classes, respecting the maximum number of students per classroom imposed by the distance measures. When they are not in contact, they will be able to follow the class online from home.
With regard to internship sessions in smaller spaces (such as laboratories, studios or sets), where appropriate, work will be carried out simultaneously in several spaces in order to ensure that the conditions established by the safety protocols are met.
A series of eminently practical activities are made available to students, which are the basis of the learning activities of the subject. These activities will have to be solved by the students, sometimes in a non-contact way, following the instructions of the teachers and / or they will also be worked in class, either as examples in the theory sessions, or in laboratory sessions ( large or small groups). Although some of these activities could be optional (teachers will not individually verify the performance by students), they will be essential to achieve the theoretical and practical knowledge of the subject.
With the aim of gathering evidence of the achievement of the expected learning outcomes, the following activities of an evaluative nature will be carried out, related to the common, transversal and specific competences. The transversal competence associated with the subject of knowledge of the third language is worked from the documentary sources that the students have to consult, and from the subject itself that has English as its vehicle language.
In relation to the basic competences assigned to the subject, these are covered especially with regard to the aspects that are explained:
In relation to the transversal competences associated with the subject, these are covered especially with regard to the aspects that are explained:
In relation to the specific competencies associated with the subject, these are covered especially so that the aspects that are explained:
In relation to the common competencies associated with the subject, these are covered especially so that the aspects that are explained:
In order to pass (pass) the assessment activities, students must demonstrate:
Rules for carrying out the activities
All grades are required. Theoretical exams can be retaken
For written tests the average of the tests must have a minimum grade of 5.0. If the grade is less than 5.0 then the final grade will be that of the written tests.
