Teaching methodology including the use of eLearning tools

Weekly lecture with slides. Student participation is expected throughout the lectures. Student will have to prepare a talk where the topics and initial literature pointers are provided by the lecturer.

Course content

Due to the advances in electronics and (wireless) communication, the development of networks of low-cost, low-power, multi-functional sensors has received increasing attention. These sensor networks are a new type of networked, embedded computing systems and are expected to become a key technology for many pervasive computing applications. This lecture covers the fundamental concepts of sensor networks, including hard- and software architectures, networking aspects, power-awareness, security and sensor fusion. The lecture is complemented by student talks on selected, application-oriented topics. In an related lab course ("Pervasive Computing Lab"), students can get hands-on experience in developing sensor network applications.

Topics

  • Introduction to Sensor Networks
  • Sensor Fundamentals, Hardware Platforms, Power Supply
  • Sensor Network OS and Middleware Systems, Programming Models and Abstractions
  • Network Architectures
  • MAC Protocols
  • Routing Protocols
  • Synchronization
  • Sensor Fusion
  • Web of Things
  • Visual Sensor Networks
  • Security and Privacy in Sensor Network
  • Sensor Network Applications

Teaching objective

Knowledge of the fundamental concepts and applications of sensor networks.

Literature

Slides and additional literature will be provided via Moodle.
