Abstract

After some years of using a classical approach to teach network programming (0 and BSD sockets), we decided to try a different approach, based on Ada as the programming language and Lower-Layer as the communication library. After two years of using this new approach in several undergraduate courses, we present here our experience and the lessons learned. In short, the new approach has proven to offer an environment easier to study, to understand, and to use for implementing protocols. Some of these advantages are due to the benefits of using Ada, while others are due to the cleaner interface of the Lower-Layer library -if compared to BSD sockets.
