Time: 11:00 am
Venue: Electrical Engineering Department, University of Engineering and Technology (UET), Lahore

Abstract:

System Design is the art and science of putting together the resources available into a harmonious whole. System Design follows some techniques that can perform a trade off between the performance metrics and resource constraints. The objective of the activity is to learn some of these techniques with respect to system design of computer networks. The study will revolve around the following major topics:

  • Common resources & their metrics
  • Major Design Techniques
  • Multiplexing
  • Pipelining & Parallelism
  • Exploiting Locality
  • Hierarchy
  • Binding & Indirection
  • Virtualization
  • Randomization
  • Soft State
  • Exchanging State Explicitly
  • Hysteresis
  • Separating Data & Control
  • Extensibility
