Appendices
Sub-domain L1: Network communication
46. The candidate is able to describe and analyse the way the network components communicate with each other, and is able to recognise the scaling impact for communication, offer examples of this and explain the consequences.
Sub-domain L2: Internet
47. The candidate is able to explain the basic principles of the Internet as a network, and is able to indicate the consequences of this network for applications and users.
Sub-domain L3: Distribution
48. The candidate is able to describe the different forms of cooperation and the distribution of functions and data in networks.
Sub-domain L4: Network security
49. The candidate is able to analyse the risks of violation of distributed functions and data, and is able to recommend measures that can prevent this violation.
Domain M: Optional theme Physical computing
Sub-domain M1: Sensors and actuators
50. The candidate is able to recognise and give a functional description of the sensors and actuators that are used by a computer system to perceive and manage the physical environment.
Sub-domain M2: Development of physical computing components
51. The candidate is able to model physical systems and processes in order to establish real time steering aspects, and is able to use these models, sensors and actuators to develop a computer system to guard and manage physical systems and processes.
Domain N: Optional theme Security
