Network Embedded Systems and Sensor Networks

Outline

12/17/07: Thanks to everyone for participating to the demo and poster session! Pictures from the event can be found here

This course is an introduction to fundamental concepts of networked embedded systems and wireless sensor networks. It is intended for juniors, seniors and first year graduate students in Computer Science and other engineering majors with the prerequisite background. Covered topics include: embedded systems programming concepts, low power and power aware design, radio technologies, communication protocols for ubiquitous computing systems, and some of the mathematical foundation of sensor behavior. Laboratory work consists of a set of programming assignments that consider a set of the issues described in class.

Prerequisites

600.226, 600.120 and 600.344/600.444 or instructor's consent.
