Course aim

To provide training in architecting an Industrial Internet of Things infrastructure to support industrial applications.

Course content

Network architectures for Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) comprising wired and wireless networks for different industrial application scenarios.

Network protocol stacks for IIoT, with focus on

  • wireless personal area network (WPAN) technologies including IEEE 802.15.4/ZigBee, Bluetooth mesh and Thread;
  • low-power wide area network (LPWAN) technologies including LoRa, Sigfox and NB-IoT;
  • lightweight application-layer protocols including CoAP and MQTT.

Device (range-based and range-free) localization/positioning techniques and location-based services.

Hardware technologies (including Trusted Computing) and software solutions (including symmetric-key and asymmetric-key cryptosystems) for securing devices and networks.

Connecting an IIoT data pipeline from edge devices to a cloud-based data analytics platform in a hands-on project with an Industry 4.0 theme.
