Networked Application Management
Assessment - Critical Analysis and Problem Solvingin Networked Application Management
Purpose of the assessment
The purpose of this assignment is to develop skills of analysing critically, and problem solving in regard to Networked Application Management (NAM). Students will be able to complete the following ULOs:
Compare various technologies and techniques for networked application management, deployment and performance tuning
Analyse and justify the use of important networked application architectures and technologies.
Analyse performance and deployment issues for networked applications
Choose appropriate industry tools and techniques to manage networked applications
Assignment Description
A group (not more than two members) will be given a topic to explore its designated areas as presented in the following table; students are advised to explore the topic area(s) by reviewing the literature; students participating in the PBL are taught how to do the critical thinking for review literature; and literature is available in the internet as papers, book chapters, and independent scholarly reports by experts, and research based videos. A group of two students will collaborate on the areas of a topic, there must have clear descriptions of individual contribution and collaborative contribution. The topic will be assigned by the tutor.
Topic- Streaming Live and interactive Audio and Video
Explore by reviewing the underlying mechanism, middleware, protocols of streaming live Audio and Video in distributed Cloud Environment. One example of such networked application management tool for live audio and video is CloudFront; critically list the others tools, techniques, protocols with comparative discussions for solving diverse requirements. What are the Metrics that are related to performance of audio and video transfer and sharing? Find a problem case study in the topic, and apply your critical thinking to solve the problem with your deep learning on the above areas. Identify and suggest Application for the given case study considering the factors mentioned above and user centric design.
