Internet of Things Education for MSc Study in Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Abstract

The observed digitalization of society and economy transforms the data from the following three worlds into digital format: a) the information world (accumulated human knowledge); b) the physical world (information from things around people); c) the social world (society and human expertise). Data fusion of these worlds is supported by the Internet of Things (IoT) technology. In this paper, we present an adapted MSc study program for students in Applied Mathematics and Computer Science in Petrozavodsk State University. We show how practical IoT problems become interesting research and development topics for educating the MSc students. The proposed adaptation can be further used for other basic MSc programs.
