Recordings

Starting with the "Network Layer I" lecture we will provide recordings of the lectures. This is experimental for now which means that you shouldn't rely on these recordings as they may be of bad quality and/or not available for a particular lecture at all. We would very much like to hear some feedback about these recordings (e.g. how is the quality, do they help you to reinforce the learning matter, would you prefer another format, ...). If you have any feedback or suggestions please send an email to the responsible teaching assistant(s) (see above).

Exercises

• Thursdays, 12.00-12.45 s.t (afterwards the lecture)
• The exercises are intended to allow students a better understanding of the lecture and to prepare for the final exam.
• If there are - despite careful checking - errors in the exercise sheets please let us know! Please contact [3].
