Mobile and pervasive intelligence enables diverse smart applications in our daily life. It provides new insights into unstructured and uncertain information from a variety of sensors, data sources, user devices, and mobile platforms. The lecture covers theoretical fundamentals in sensing, communications, computing, and autonomy techniques; how to apply them in practical systems, and design principles in mobile and pervasive applications. The content includes the following topics:

A: Sensation and perception of mobile platforms
Section 1-Sensing: Wireless, visual, acoustic, and privacy-preserving sensing techniques
Section 2-Communications: Advanced communication and networking technologies to connect hardware and software components in one or more pervasive systems.
 

B: Intelligence creation
Section 3-Computing: Context-aware computing, serverless computing, and distributed intelligence
Section 4-Autonomy: Autonomous coordination and collaboration techniques between mobile platforms (e.g., drones or robots)

The word “design” has been a common keyword for many industries to identify and solve their problems. The positive side of this trend is that everyone becomes aware of the value of design. However, design eventually occupies a very limited area in startup culture, mainly for aesthetics, communication process, and user experience. While the startup eco system understands that “design” can be a big part of creating company’s value, yet, it is still hidden in the mysterious box which only design professionals can understand or access. Design Driven Innovation and Entrepreneurship (DDIE) is a course for non-design background students who are willing to integrate the knowledge between Entrepreneurship, Innovation and Design. The course offers a mix of hands-on exercises in a collaborative setting, as well as dedication to a group project. Throughout the course, you will be coached about the set-up and execution of your group project. During the course students pay attention to the different parts and dimensions of a business: services, products, customer value, delivery processes, revenue models, and interfaces with customers, branding message, customer experiences and much more. This course will offer lectures and hands-on practices.
