Introduction
In this course, the students will gain an understanding of some of the most important principles of the Internet of Things (IoT). IoT enables the development of unique, innovative products and services. The students will become familiar with architecture and intelligent algorithms that govern IoT and pervasive computing. The goal of the course is to give the students an overall understanding of IoT: from a technical point of view - and in relation to the consequences for society (for example privacy preservation, security) - when billions (or trillions) of units communicate with each other in ‘the cloud’.
Recommended preliminary courses
The course builds on the computer science courses from the first semester.
Required preliminary courses
No requirements over and above the admission requirements.
