Program Control of Switching Systems

The course is a substitute for:

Program Control of Switching Systems (X32PRS)

Lecturer:

Tutor:

Supervisor:

Department of Telecommunications Engineering

Synopsis:

The subject is targeted to getting knowledges about principles, features and usage of program control of switching systems. The overview of technical solution of various types of control units is discussed. An accent is placed especially on programming of such systems. The CHILL programming language is discussed and practically trained in the UNIX operating system environment.
