CS3102 Data Communications & Networks
The CS3102 students have been working on a variety of OpenSim projects and produced some interesting and original interactive simulations.
Imaginative virtual environments were used to explain a variety of topics including cellular networks, wireless networks, cloud computing, network topologies and denial of service. We caught up with them last week as they finalised their practical work.
Great work everyone.
