A graduate-level University of Waterloo course (CS 798, Fall 2008) on the mathematical tools used in computer networking, drawing on probability, statistical inference, and stochastic processes.

The commenter calls it a really great course with a broad set of topics, similar in structure to Stat 110.

    It is unfortunate that the content isn't available outside of iTunes.

    Thought, if you're interested there are some other pretty good intro probability courses online:

    Math and Probability for Life Sciences (UCLA): http://www.academicearth.org/courses/math-and-proability-for... The course doesn't cover as much material, but is still fairly detailed.

    CS 798 Mathematical Foundations of Computer Networking, Fall 2008, University of Waterloo: http://blizzard.cs.uwaterloo.ca/keshav/mediawiki-1.4.7/index... This is a really great course that covers a broad set of topics, and is some what similar in structure to the Stat 110 course. Beyond the basics of probability, you also can learn a good deal about statistical inference and stochastic processes.
