Course Description:

The goal of this course is to introduce and develop an understanding of the computing and communication for Internet of Things as a subset of Cyber Physical systems. Connectivity among devices in our daily lives such as WiFi-enabled thermostats, smarts grids, and driverless cars is ushering in an era of sociality that transcend human social networks to machine to machine networks. Lecture material in the first half of course will cover key concepts from wireless and sensor networks. The second half of class will be run as a seminar with presentations.

Team project is a key part of this course. Each project will demonstrate a salient application of interest to students including sensor/actuator apps and ambient environments. 

Objective: The course will provide skills to design and deploy future cyber physical systems.

The course will offer skills to (a) explain natural and collective phenomena in online networks and cyberspace, and (b) understand and design network policies to produce desirable effects.

Course administration and grading. The course will be run as a regular lecture class with six individual home work (9 points each), 6 quizes (one point each), and two team projects (first 20 points =1 point for proposal + 4 point for technical accuracy and measurement + 5 points for a prototype + 5 points for presentation), (second 20 points = 5 points for technical maturity + 5 points for accurate quatification+ 5 points for improved implementation + 5 points for 5 points for presentation).

Textbooks:

All reading material will be suggested by the instructor.

Emergency Procedures: Southern Illinois University Carbondale is committed to providing a safe and healthy environment for study and work. Because some health and safety circumstances are beyond our control, we ask that you become familiar with the SIUC Emergency Response Plan and Building Emergency Response Team (BERT) program. Emergency response information is available on posters in buildings on campus, available on BERT's website at www.bert.siu.edu, Department of Safety's website www.dps.siu.edu (disaster drop down) and in Emergency Response Guideline pamphlet. Know how to respond to each type of emergency.
