Curriculum
1. IoT and its Applications using Raspberry Pi:
IoT and its Applications using Raspberry Pi is a course that provides practical knowledge on using the Raspberry Pi microcontroller along with a variety of sensors to design and develop IoT-based solutions. It includes writing small and easy codes for sensor deployment as well as for web-based dashboard APIs. In this context, it also explains the edge computing paradigm and low-power wireless technologies used for interfacing sensors with web-based backend cloud platforms. The objective of this course is to familiarise students with Raspberry Pi and sensor interfacing, and using data communication for connecting Raspberry Pi with the server backend through various interfaces and protocols. At the end of this course, students can design and develop a real-world sensor based IoT system using Raspberry Pi. They can also to connect multiple Raspberry Pi microcontrollers and sensors to a single backend for transferring data to cloud platforms for further analysis and visualisation.
2. Information Security – A practitioner’s perspective:
Information Security - Practitioner's Perspective is a course in which students will learn and demonstrate their ability to identify computer and network security threats, classify the threats, and develop a security model to prevent, detect, and recover from attacks. They will also learn to encrypt and decrypt messages using block ciphers, sign and verify messages using well known signature generation. Verifying algorithms, analysing of existing authentication and key agreement protocols, and identifying their weaknesses are also a part of the course.
3. IoT Application Development on Cloud:
The IoT Application Development on Cloud course covers the development of Internet of Things (IoT) products and services such as device management, data management, analytics, network and communication protocol, and cloud platforms like AWS and Microsoft Azure. The IoT Cloud Application is loaded with APIs and other interfaces that push and pull the data and commands to and from the IoT sensor nodes and devices and also downstream application.The objective of this course is to teach students about various Cloud Computing models by practicing Over-the-Air (OTA) programming, designing databases and handling Big Data, learning various features of the existing Cloud IoT platforms, gaining an understanding of how to manage the lifecycle of devices from onboard to offboard, and finally how to programme and update the firmware of the devices remotely using OTA.
