Students will learn to work with a networking standard as well as scientific literature about it. I.e., understand the contents and their context, critically reflect on it (with the help of a scientific literature research), and will learn to present their findings in a concise fashion.
- see the IEEE 802.1 Working Group’s webpage
- Understand (parts of) a component of the standard from a given research paper and a literature research, be able to present it. Literature may
- address its modeling, evaluation, performance benchmarking, etc.
- be technical papers about practical implementation are appreciated, too, yet not as stand alone subject of the research and neither as the only related work in the seminar
- (patents or overview articles are not of interest either)
- Seminar Papers (starting point, content to be presented to the group):
- Worst-Case Latency Analysis for IEEE 802.1Qbv Time Sensitive Networks Using Network Calculus link
- Modelling in network calculus a TSN architecture mixing Time-Triggered, Credit Based Shaper and Best-Effort queues link
- Self-Configuration of IEEE 802.1 TSN Networks link
- Ensuring Reliable and Predictable Behavior of IEEE 802.1CB Frame Replication and Elimination link
- IEEE 802.1AS Time Synchronization in a switched Ethernet based In-Car Network link
- Toward an Optimized Multi-Cyclic Queuing and Forwarding in Time-Sensitive Networking With Time Injection link
