This course will explore research, frameworks, and applications in Edge Computing, with a focus on big data analytics. The class will begin with a review of current big data analytics frameworks for Cloud Computing. We will then explore frameworks for computing over edge devices and cloud. Finally, we will study algorithms for distributed data analytics over edge devices. The course content will come from research papers, articles, and software documentation. We will work together to develop a deep understanding of this content through class presentations and tutorials. Students will also create a research project of their choosing that leverages edge and cloud computing technologies.
Your project report must be 4 to 6 pages, in IEEE conference format. The report template can be found here.
