Course description
A new class of IT applications has emerged, capturing immense attention and significantly altering the social perception of Computer Science. Concurrently, these smart systems have introduced new challenges that fundamentally change the design, development, and operation of IT systems. These challenges are deeply rooted in the main characteristics of smart systems and applications. Mobility stands out as a key feature. Mobile systems move while providing or consuming services. Typically, users carry mobile devices to access wireless communication services. Mobile applications exhibit unique behaviors and face constraints unknown to traditional IT systems. They must be developed to use scarce resources economically and adapt smoothly to context changes. In the study of Computer Science, subjects like Mobile Systems, Wireless Communication, and Smart Systems Design are crucial. Programs such as Mobile Application Development and Smart Systems Engineering focus on these areas, preparing students to tackle the challenges posed by these advanced technologies. Understanding these concepts is essential for anyone looking to excel in the field. The ability to design and develop mobile applications that efficiently use resources and adapt to changing contexts is now a fundamental skill. This shift in focus reflects the evolving landscape of IT, where mobility and smart systems play a pivotal role.
