Assessment:
Internal Assessment:
Assessment consists of two class tests of 20 marks each. The first class test is to be conducted
when approx. 40% syllabus is completed and second class test when additional 40% syllabus is
completed. Duration of each test shall be one hour.
End Semester Theory Examination:
1 Question paper will comprise of total six questions.
2 All question carries equal marks
3 Questions will be mixed in nature (for example supposed Q.2 has part (a) from module 3
then part (b) will be from any module other than module 3)
4 Only Four question need to be solved.
5 In question paper weightage of each module will be proportional to number of respective
lecture hours as mention in the syllabus.

Lab Code Lab Name Credit
CSL603 Mobile Computing Lab 1
Prerequisite: Computer Networks
Lab Objectives:
1 To learn the mobile computing tools and software for implementation.
2 To understand the security algorithms in mobile networks
3 To learn security concepts
Lab Outcomes: At the end of the course, the students will be able to
1 develop and demonstrate mobile applications using various tools
2 articulate the knowledge of GSM, CDMA & Bluetooth technologies and demonstrate it.
3 Students will able to carry out simulation of frequency reuse, hidden/exposed terminal
problem
4 implement security algorithms for mobile communication network
5 demonstrate simulation and compare the performance of Wireless LAN
Suggested List of Experiments
The softwares like Android Studio, J2ME, NS2, NS3 and any other software which is suitable
are recommended for performing the practical.
Sr. No. Title of Experiment
1 Implementation a Bluetooth network with application as transfer of a file from one
device to another.
2 To implement a basic function of Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA).
3 Implementation of GSM security algorithms (A3/A5/A8)
4 Illustration of Hidden Terminal/Exposed terminal Problem. Consider two Wi-fi
base stations (STA) and an access point (AP) located along the x-axis. All the
nodes are fixed. The AP is situated at the middle of the two STA, the distance of
separation being 150 m. [variable]. Node #0 and node #1 are the hidden
terminals. Both are transmitting some data to the AP (almost at same rate) at the
same time. The loss across the wireless link between each STA and the AP is
fixed at 50 dB irrespective of the distance of separation. To study how
RTS/CTS helps in wireless networks,
1. No RTS/CTS is being sent.
2. Nodes do exchange RTS/CTS packets.
Compare the no. of packet retransmissions required in both the cases (as
obtained in the output) and compare the results.
5 To setup & configuration of Wireless Access Point (AP). Analyze the Wi-Fi
communication range in the presence of the access point (AP) and the base
station (BS). Consider BS and AP are static. Find out the maximum distance to
which two way communications is possible. Try multiple iterations by adjusting
its distance in the code and test it.
6 Study of security tools (like Kismet,Netstumbler)
7 Develop an application that uses GUI components.
8 Write an application that draws basic graphical primitives on the screen.
9 Develop an application that makes use of database.
