Course overview

In-depth, advanced topics include distributed computing, computer networks, distributed computer systems, cryptography and data compression.

Multimedia systems integrate all different types of data - text, graphics, image, video and sound - in a unified computing environment. In the 1990's there was a phenomenal growth in the 'multimedia industry' and much more is predicted. This combined with the growth of the Internet means that the subject must now be significant part of any computer science curriculum. Southampton has the IAM and LSL groups that undertake state-of-the-art research in the Multimedia area. Fittingly, the coursework will involve a research-led approach to learning about the Multimedia topics.
