3.5:1.5:0:4 Electromagnetic wave propagation in free space and in dielectrics is studied starting from a consideration of distributed inductance and capacitance on transmission lines. Electromagnetic plane waves are obtained as a special case. Reflection and transmission at discontinuities are discussed for pulsed sources, while impedance transformation and matching are presented for harmonic time dependence. Snell's law and the reflection and transmission coefficients at dielectric interfaces are derived for obliquely propagation plane waves. Guiding of waves by dielectrics and by metal waveguides is demonstrated. Alternate-week laboratory. Objectives: Establish foundations of electromagnetic wave theory applicable to antennas, transmissions lines, and materials; increase appreciation for properties of materials through physical experiments.

Middleware is software that allows different applications on, typically distributed, computer systems to interact. Groupware is middleware that is designed to allow many people to work together. It often incorporates business processes with communication in order to support the policies of enterprises. In dealing with the general issue of group software, one can address the objects of collaboration and sharing. Thus, one may include here a discussion of multimedia interfaces, XML, SOAP, SOA, web services, information sharing and object technologies. Prerequisite: regular graduate status.
