Short Description
The aim of this Teaching Unit (TU) is to support the understanding of technological
basics of network technology by experimenting with an experimental network. The Teaching
Unit is a sequence of 5 Subunits which consist of a description of the Unit, Working
Sheets and Programming Source Code.
In the first Sub-Unit, a serial computer connection between two PCs is realised. Here the
basics of hard- and software for this connection type are taught. In the second Sub-Unit
the pupils are taught to write and test their own programme for the test of this computer
connection. The third Sub-Units aims at an extension of the simple protocol to a packet
oriented protocol. In the fourth Sub-Unit the one-to-one PC-connection is extended toward
a network of four PCs with a ring topology. The fifth Sub-Unit aims at an evaluation of
the experiments with regard to data safety and security.
Time Table
Sub-Unit 1 = 3 Course Hours
Sub-Unit 2 = 5 Course Hours
Sub-Unit 3 = 4 Course Hours
Sub-Unit 4 = 4 Course Hours
Sub-Unit 5 = 4 Course Hours
Task-Group
The Teaching Unit has been developed for the vocational field
Communication-Electronics. Pupils should have some pre-knowledge of basics of Digital
Signal-Processing, Interface Technology and a programming language (PASCAL).
Requested Media
- IBM compatible PC with 2 serial interfaces and MSDOS Vers. >= 3.3
- Interface-Cables
- Soldering iron, cables and connectors for the connections
- PC-Handbooks incl. DOS
- Programming Environment (i.e. Turbo-Pascal)
Remarks
The Teaching Unit is characterised by a high degree of pupils activities. Students get
the possibility to solder their own cables and connectors.
