Suitable for exchange students (learning agreement)
Workload:
Workload of student for successfully completing the course. Each ECTS credit represents 30 working hours. These are the combined effort of face-to-face time, post-processing the subject of the lecture, exercises and preparation for the exam.

The total workload is distributed on the semester (01.04.-30.09. during the summer term, 01.10.-31.03. during the winter term).
60 class hours (= 45 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 150 hours (equivalent to 5 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 105 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):
None.
Recommended as prerequisite for:
Module coordinator:
Prof. Joberto Martins
Lecturer: Prof. Joberto Martins

Learning outcomes:
Internet and networks are evolving and expanding their utilization dramatically.
  
The students will be able to explain new paradigms, new protocols, new intelligent solutions and large scale complex systems and apply these concepts to various areas of our daily life. They understand the current network evolution trends and know the relevant new technologies involved.
  
The students are able to analyze the network evolution scenario and apply the new SDN/OpenFlow ideas in the context of the actual and challenging Smart City scenario. They can distinguish certain development challenges with respect to Smart City characteristics, furthermore solve project issues by establishing underlying concepts. They use SDN/OpenFlow architecture and apply basic Machine Learning tools to Smart City project issues.
