I have not finalized the class syllabus as of yet. However, I can
mention the topics that I plan to cover in the class and some overall
information.

Topics will include application systems, self-organization, routing, 
data dissemination, data fusion, topology management, MAC protocols, 
sensor management, ssecurity, and so on.

The pre-requisite for the class is basically would be a basic networking
class or the consent of the instructor. Basic knowledge of wireless
networks would be plus, but not a must.

The class will be conducted as a research based class which means that
most of the material being discussed will come from the most recent
journal and conference papers. There most likely will be one exam and
the students expect to hand-in assigned paper summaries as part of the
homework. At last, there will be a fairly good size class project
(individual or group of two) to design and implement new algorithms
in a given topic.

Overall, I would say that this class would be beneficial to those who
would like to start working in the area of wireless networks as well
as those students who would like to get familiar with the area.

Hope this was helpful. If you have any further questions, please
let me know.

Sincerely,

Damla Turgut
