IoT, ArchitecturesLaajuus (3 cr)

Objective

On completing the course the student understands how an Internet of Things system can be build out of devices, software, communication networks, communication protocols, server applications and cloud services. Special attention will be given on scalability from a system of tens of devices and tens of users to a system of thousands of devices and thousands of users.

Content

Different options for the architecture of an Internet of Things systems will be studied through real life examples. In the exercises the sensor devices will be simulated in software. The operation of so called Edge Devices and IoT Platform Services will be configured and coded with the same development tools as would be used by most important actors in the IoT market. However, previous knowledge on software development will not be absolutely necessary.
