Introduction to IoT (ECS782P) Module

1This is a core semester 1 (Sep. to Dec.) for the MSc. IoT and consists of 24 hours of lectures plus optional Labs. The lectures are as follows:

1 Introduction – what are we connecting and why?

2 The Smart DEI (Smart Devices, Smart Environments & Smart Interaction) Model for IoT – How can we model and classify human-centric IoT devices?

3-4 Microcomputers, Microcontrollers, Embedded Systems, MEMS, ASIC – and how these enable the anything and anyone IoT Innovation.

5-6 Designing Smart Devices – How to go from an idea to a prototype.

7-8 Multi-Device IoT Systems and Service Management – how to design including partition and distribute Multi IoT Devices.

9-10 Multi-Device IoT Interoperability – enabled by new IoT standards and protocols and genetic Message Exchange Patterns (MEPs).

11 WoT (Web of Things) Intro. – a design and implementation for multi-device IoT systems based on Web protocols.

14 WoT4 Constrained Devices as Web Servers – in IoT any smart physical object can act as directly accessible data or application server

15 Smart Environments – how to tag, sense and actuate environments to become smart environments.

16 Low Energy & Sustainable IoT – without which IoT is not scalable and its cons will outweigh its pros.

17-18 IoT Data Processing and Management – why it’s not just about data queries and big data

19-20 IoT Security and Privacy – guarding against internet attacks by any smart thing and governing how things can profile us humans
