Course Description:

A new era of computing is on the horizon. In this new era, hundreds of billions of tiny devices are deeply embedded within our physical environment. The devices are integrated into everything, from badges to chairs, and all have the ability to compute, sense, and communicate. This brings a new computing paradigm – pervasive computing, in which computation occurs everywhere. This course is intended to provide an in-depth examination of advanced topics in pervasive computing.
