Projects

There are going to be three implementation projects in this class. The projects are going to teach you how to do UNIX Network Programming. No previous knowledge of TCP/IP Programming is required, but you do need to know C/C++ and UNIX application developement (e.g. gcc, makefiles, manpages etc). You should be able to use your department UNIX account for developement but you are also free to use your home machine. The only requirement is that the code will compile on Solaris. You can also write your code on Linux as long as it compiles on Solaris. Non-CS students that do not have a UNIX account and would like to get one, should contact me. These are group projects, so you should team up to groups of 2 people. Mixed teams of CS349 and CS449 students are not allowed.

There are going to be three projects:
