  • Introduction to networks (packet networks, OSI and TCP/IP protocol architecture, standardization bodies)
  • Network applications (client-server paradigm, document exchange (web, HTTP, FTP), e-mail (SMTP, protocols), representation of structured information (web, XML))
  • IP networks (protocol, routing, ARP, address translation, DNS, firewalls, private networks)
  • TCP and sockets (protocols, ARQ, Flow control, UDP, TCP, API sockets)
  • Local area networks (architecture and typologies, Ethernet, wireless networks)
  • Advanced concepts of TCP/IP protocols, Internet Service Providers (ISPs), routing algorithms, and multimedia protocols
  • Security in computer networks: protection, security protocols, electronic commerce, application management
  • Local and network services

For the correct monitoring of the subject, the students will work with their personal computer (laptop), which they must bring to all classes.

Contents

The subject is structured as follows:

  • Topic 1: Introduction and basic concepts
  • Topic 2: Devices and programming for IoT environments
  • Topic 3: Platforms for the management of the IoT environment
  • Topic 4: Decision making in IoT environments
  • Topic 5: Vertical use cases of IoT solutions

Evaluation system

The subject is assessed based on the following activities:

  • Exams (EXAM): 20%
  • Practices (PRAC): 30%
  • Projects (PROJ): 20%
  • Presentations (PRES): 10%
  • Asynchronous work (ASIN): 20%

Additional considerations:

  • All activities are mandatory; activities that have not been attended or not performed are evaluated with a zero (0).
  • Exam notes (EXAM) can be retrieved on the official date, notes from the other activities (PRAC, PROJ, PRES and ASIN) cannot be retrieved.
  • Any indication of copying or plagiarism (from peers, from uncited sources, or from tools such as ChatGPT) will result in the activity being assessed with a zero (0).
  • Repeated behavior of copying or plagiarism will result in the subject being evaluated with a zero (0) and the student being reported to the University management.
