My final project\u00a0is based on research of NYU-NET and networking hardware and software. It’s also a parody of\u00a0The Neverending Story, because, well, data packets are neverending like the story and books are replaced by networked devices and computers, so yeah.<\/p>\n

The challenge is to make it entertaining and simple to learn about networks\u00a0with the objective of informing the curious minded. In my outline, I listed out key concepts I needed to cover, such as Internet Protocol, Autonomous System, Routers, Switches, etc. And I tried to incorporate these concepts into the storyline. \u00a0In terms of the design, I think I’ve succeeded in achieving cheesiness (hopefully in a good way). All visual elements were drawn with only shapes that Google Slide provides.<\/p>\n

Also, thanks to\u00a0Tom and Karl for showing me how devices are networked in ITP, and to Craig for speaking with his boss at ITS about some of my NYU-NET questions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
