Specialization profile--Electives: Internet of Things
The Embedded Systems group and Networked Systems group are sections within the Department of Software Technology.
The Embedded Systems group (chair: Koen Langendoen) believes that seeing is believing. We experiment with many types of wireless networks (let those be LTE, WiFi or sensors) and push the boundaries of what is possible with off-the-shelf and state-of-the-art wireless nodes. We also research new and exciting communication domains, including battery-less devices, visual light communication motes and wireless power transfer networks. We are a group that has a good connection with the industry, allowing our MSc students to do internships and thesis work outside. With us you will learn the bridge the networking theory with practice and will be able to understand how to analyze and prototype real networks (and communication protocols for such). You will also improve your programming skills be knowledgeable about network measurement and simulation.
The Networked Systems group (chair: Fernando Kuipers) works on building internet and communication technologies for a performant, sustainable and trustworthy digitalized society. Our research spans from software development, to algorithm/protocol design, to systems engineering, with the aim to push the envelope in internet, 6G, and IoT. Our group comprises four labs, namely on: (1) internet science, (2) network optimization, (3) exreme IoT, and (4) sustainable sensing and communication.
