Course Objective

The aim of the course is to understand the hardware and architectures based on the buiding block of many types of computers: The microcprocessors; recognize the machine to machine (m2) communication, applications in Internet of Things (IoT) and Internet of Everything (IoE); recognize the performance metrics of the IoT and IoE server computers were information is saved and then searched.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   Recognize the features and architectures of processors,
2   Recognize the hyperthreading and multi-core architectures of modern processors and acquire the capability to exploit their benefits.
3   Recognize the shortcomings of resource stricken embedded systems, RFID tags and sensors found in IoT devices,
4   Recognize the characteristics of microprocessor based devices and their communication protocols found in IoT and IoE infrastructures,
5   Recognize the IoT and IoE applications and acquire the capability of developing similar applications,
6   Recognize and compare the properties and features of different multi-tasking, multi-user and multi-core processor servers, where the IoT and IoE entities get connected.
