Students should have completed Fonaments de Xarxes (Network Fundamentals) and Xarxes de Telecomunicació (Telecommunication Networks), and have an adequate level of programming.
The course is divided into 7 subjects, which revolve around multimedia information systems and services:
During the course, we will carry out the following activities:
Annotation: Within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.

The final grade of the subject, which includes assessment on the acquisition of knowledge, skills and competences, will be calculated by weighting:
A minimum final grade of 5 is required to pass the course.
When a student does not pass any of the parts that require a minimum mark, the average will be calculated with the marks obtained. If this average is equal to or less than 4.9, the final grade will be this average, whereas if it is greater than 4.9 the final grade will be 4.9 (S).
This course does not consider the single assessment system.
The assessment mechanisms used in the subject are described in more detail below.
The dates for continuous assessment and submission of papers will be published on the first day of the subject in the Virtual Campus and may be subject to possible changes in programming for reasons of adaptation to possible incidents. Always be informed on the Virtual Campus about these changes as it is understood that this is the usual platform for exchange of information between teachers and students.
The following assessment activities are foreseen:
Students may take the retaking process if they have taken a set of activities that represent at least two-thirds of the total grade of the course.
Retaking mechanisms will focus on activities 1) Portfolio, 2) Validation of Knowledge, 3) Laboratory sessions. In the event that a student has not passed any, or all of these parts, before the date of the final exam, this part can be retaken by means of a written test (cases 2 and 3), making a second delivery of the laboratory report (case 3) or finishing the Portfolio before that date (case 1). In case 1, if the student retakes the Portfolio part, a pass or fail will be obtained. If the student passes, a maximum mark of 5 will be obtained. If the student fails, the mark previously obtained in this part will be obtained.
For each assessment activity, a place, date and time of revision in which the student can review the activity with the teacher will be indicated. In this context, claims may be made on the activity grade, which will be evaluated by the faculty responsible for the subject. If not specified otherwise, if the student does not appear in this revision, this activity will not be reviewed later.
When a student has not done any work in laboratory, has not taken any of the partial or final theory written tests, and has a mark lower than 5 in the portfolio, it will be considered that there are not enough assessment evidences, and the final mark will be "not assessable." The rest of students who have not passed the course will get a "Suspens" (fail) grade, with the mark obtained in the subject. Those students qualified with "Suspens" due to not having reached the minimum mark in any of the assessment tests, will have the mark got in the assessment exam that has not reached the minimum required (always taking the minimum mark in the case that the minimum in several tests is not obtained).
Honor grade (Matrícula d'Honor, MH): Granting an honor grade qualification is a decision of the faculty responsible for the subject. The regulations of the UAB indicate that MH can only be awarded to students who have obtained a final grade of 9.00 or more. It can be granted up to 5% of MH of the total number of students enrolled.
Without prejudice to other disciplinary measures deemed appropriate, and in accordance with current academic regulations, any irregularities committed by the student that could lead to a variation of the grade of an assessment act will be scored with a zero. Therefore, copying or allowing to copy a laboratory work or any other assessment activity will involve suspending with a zero, and if it is necessary to pass it to pass, the whole subject will be suspended. The assessment activities qualified in this way and by this procedure will not be recoverable, and therefore the subject will be suspended directly without the opportunity to recover it in the same academic year.
Repeater students can validate the theory part of the subject. The way to calculate the final grade will be the same as the one mentioned above, taking the note of the Portfolio, activities in class and exam of the theory part validate.
Repeater students will also be able to validate the laboratory work separately. The way to calculate the final grade will be the same as the one mentioned above, taking the note of the laboratory practice (or practices) that has been validated.
The laboratory sessions consist in the accomplishment of a series of works with which they try to reach knowledge and abilities seen in theory or totally new. It is considered equally important to have worked throughout the development of the laboratory, as having understood and learned the knowledge to them.
In the development of the subject, two projects will be carried out in the fields of:
The specific details on the organization of the laboratories (groups, calendar, weighting, ...) and on their follow-up (reports, attendance requirements, policy on originality of the code, ...) can be downloaded from the Virtual Campus.
