books	Textbooks There are no textbooks, since it has become difficult to find ones that are suitably up-to-date and reasonably priced. There will, however, be short readings. In order to have them be as current as possible, they may be announced in class and on this Website with little lead time before you will be responsible for having read them (for example, in an unannounced quiz).

class notes (lectures only; none for demonstrations)	Lecture notes will be available here after each class. Data, Information, and Knowledge: 9/3 PPT file Internet Structure and History 9/8 PPT file Packet-Switching Demo [requires Flash]
