Minor Technological Challenges in the IoT Domain

This course mixes different topics of Electronics and Computer Science related to the development of the Internet-of-Things with both technical and societal viewpoints:

• Distributed infrastructures for connected objects
• Introduction to data valorization
• Security and privacy for IoT

The course first introduces security and privacy issues raised by IoT systems as well as approaches to address those issues and their exploitation. The course then discusses the high-level frameworks used to design connected objects and their infrastructures. The course finally covers basic high-level solutions to exploit all the data produced by large infrastructures of connected objects. Students will be evaluated based on a quizz about lectures and labs and based on a project running throughout the course. The project will require developing a small prototype for demonstration purposes and authoring a small report synthesizing the efforts undertaken and technological challenges encountered.
