    Course Outline:

    Course Rationale: Pervasive computing refers to the ubiquitous presence of computing in both mobile and embedded environments, with the ability to access and update information anywhere, anyplace and anytime. This idea has been around for a long time, but only now is pervasive computing truly taking root. The course focuses to formulate the pathway to walk in the area of Pervasive Computing.

     

    Course Objective: To provide a solid conceptual understanding of pervasive computing with the following objectives-

    •     To get familiar with the basic concepts of pervasive computing

    •     How to solve real life problems using smart identification and smart labels

    •     To learn how to ensure pervasive device’s security

    •     To acquaint with Internet protocols and formats, Wireless Application Protocols, Gateways

     

    Course Outcomes (CO’s)

     

    CO1

    Learners should be able to define the principles of Pervasive Computing, pervasive information technology, smart identification, sensors and actuators.

    CO2

    Learners should be able to identify the use of smart identification, use of sensors and actuators.

    CO3

    Learners should be able to apply the knowledge cryptography to ensure security of pervasive devices.

    CO4

    Learners should be able to explain about Internet protocols and formats, Wireless Application Protocols, gateways, cryptographic algorithms.
