| 10. | Course Goals (acquired competencies):
The student will be enriched with theoretical and practical work in advanced computations of communication data over mobile and wireless networks and systems. The students will work and get knowledge for distributive systems and future generation of mobile and wireless systems and services. With the knowledge given in this course, the student will have opportunity to get skills and competitions for Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) and fog computing, design of computation systems, infrastructures and services which are using advanced Cloud computation and processing. Also, the student will get practical and theoretical knowledge for modern advanced data computation and processing in wireless and mobile systems and Delay-Tolerant Networking (DTN). |

Conditions for acquiring teacher’s signature and for taking final exam |
Regular realization of the activities from 15.1 up to 16.3. | |||||||||||
| 20. | Forms of assessment |
During the semester, two partial written exams are provided (at the middle and at the end of the semester, lasting 90 minutes) and a practical project (after the theoretical classes). The points from the partial exams, the points form the project work, the points from the homework assignments and the points from the study activity. In the planned exam sessions, a written exam is taken (duration 90 minutes). The final grade includes the points from the written exam, the points of the project work, the points from the homework assignments and the points from the study activity. It is not allowed to use books, scripts, manuscripts or notes of any kind during the exam, as well as a calculator, mobile phone, tablet or any other electronic device. |
