Procedures and Tasks
Apply the knowledge of mathematics, science,
Communication engineering fundamentals, and an
engineering specialization to the solution of The Topic
problem being chosen
Identify, research literature, for the best, proper
simulation tool to be adopted, used to study,
examine challenges of the problem you have chosen
Design; develop a simulation model for the
networking problems and system components,
parameters and/or processes that meet the specified
simulation needs with appropriate consideration for the
networking environmental considerations.
Identify, research literature, for the model engineering
parameters and present its effects on the
performance of the system using the simulation model
and its tool to be adopted, used to study, examine
challenges of the problem you have chosen

sittings
Understand the impact of different parameter
variations on the solutions and networking environmental
Demonstrate and present simulation results in such
a way to show sustainable, acceptable performance gain
Use simulation results of simulation experiments in the
analysis and interpretation of the results to provide
valid conclusions.
