  • CS U647: Secure Wireless Ad Hoc Robots on Mission 1

    4.00 Credits
    Northeastern University

    Introduces the concepts underlying the design of robust and secure heterogeneous wireless networking of mobile robots: Internetworking, security, wireless communication, embedded development, and mobile phone platforms. Students form mixed teams with the goal of designing and building rescue-mission-oriented heterogeneous wireless systems operating in adversarial environments. These systems consist of off-the-shelf robots enhanced by the students with a low-power control and sensing embedded system; a low-power digital radio frequency communication network; a coordination unit connected to the Internet; and a messaging and command system based on cell phones. The course culminates in a competition between teams. Students are graded based on their designs, presentations, innovation, robustness, and competition performance. Graduate students are expected to make a research contribution.

  • CS U648: Secure Wireless Ad Hoc Robots on Mission 2

    4.00 Credits
    Northeastern University

    Continues CS U647. Based on the experiences in CS U647, student teams have an opportunity to build more autonomous systems that can navigate areas where wireless communication or direct visibility are not possible. The systems must be resilient to more sophisticated denial-of-service attacks and need to more carefully account for energy consumption expended on mobility, communication, and meeting the mission task. Graduate students are expected to make a research contribution.

  • CS U650: Topics in Computer Networks

    4.00 Credits
    Northeastern University

    Introduces the underlying concepts and principles of computer networks with emphasis on the Internet architecture and protocols. Details the design and implementation of network protocols that compose a fully functional communication system. Discusses protocol concepts including encoding and framing; reliable transmission; packet forwarding and routing; and flow and congestion control. Architectural considerations focus on protocol interactions and the functionality/performance tradeoff. Includes a comparative discussion on the performance evaluation of communication systems highlighting different goals, metrics, and perspectives. Also covers application protocols and applications such as electronic mail and the World Wide Web.

  • CS U665: Compilers

    4.00 Credits
    Northeastern University

    Studies the construction of compilers and integrates material from earlier courses on programming languages, automata theory, computer architecture, and software design. Examines syntax trees; static semantics; type checking; typical machine architectures and their software structures; code generation; lexical analysis; and parsing techniques. Uses a hands-on approach with a substantial term project.

  • CS U670: Software Development

    4.00 Credits
    Northeastern University

    Considers software development as a systematic process involving specification, design, documentation, implementation, testing, and maintenance. Examines software process models; methods for software specification; modularity, abstraction, and software reuse; and issues of software quality. Students, possibly working in groups, design, document, implement, test, and modify software projects.

  • CS U675: Web Development

    4.00 Credits
    Northeastern University

    Discusses Web development for sites that are dynamic, data driven, and interactive. Focuses on the software development issues of integrating multiple languages, assorted data technologies, and Web interaction. Considers ASP.NET, C#, HTTP, HTML, CSS, XML, XSLT, JavaScript, AJAX, RSS/Atom, SQL, and Web services. Requires each student to deploy individually designed Web experiments that illustrate the Web technologies and at least one major integrative Web site project. Students may work as a team with the permission of the instructor. Each student or team must also create extensive documentation of their goals, plans, design decisions, accomplishments, and user guidelines. All source files must be open and be automatically served by a sources server.
