Computer Networks and Distributed Systems

Examination

The course "Computer Networks and Distributed Systems" (TDTS04) is worth 8 ECTS credits:

• 3 credits based on the assignments/labs (hands on part), and
• 5 credits based on the the final exam (theory part).

Of course, some students will find one or the other part of the course easier/harder, so the workload associated with the different parts will therefore vary from student to student. While the grade is based on the written exam, the student must pass both parts of the course for a passing grade (3, 4, or 5).

Grading

The grade (5, 4, 3, or fail) for the course depends on a single written exam.

The labs will be graded Pass/Fail (Godkänd/Underkänd).

Exam format

After Covid-19, the exam is back to in-person 4h hand writing format. Exam questions (5) are chosen randomly from this set, with possible minor changes.

N.B.: LiU does not allow remote participation to exams. Therefore it is especially important for exchange students to pass the first exam after the course!
