The lecture provides students with knowledge and skills in the technical performance evaluation of communication networks. The module focuses on empirical, simulation-based, and data-driven methods for designing, conducting, and evaluating performance studies. Students are prepared to systematically assess modern communication systems and to apply reproducible experiments and simulations for analyzing and improving network performance.
