International Telecommunication Union (ITU) Centre of Excellence (CoE) at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technologies, Ss. Cyril and Methodius University in Skopje, will conduct eLearning course on “Future Broadband: Ultra-broadband Internet, Clouds, IoT and Artificial Intelligence” from 25 May to 21 June 2021, within the framework of ITU Centre of Excellence Network for Europe, and it will be delivered through the ITU Academy: https://academy.itu.int

Head/Coordinator of ITU Centre of Excellence at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technologies in Skopje is Prof. Dr. Toni Janevski (tonij@feit.ukim.edu.mk).

This course will focus on Future Broadband: Ultra-broadband Internet, Clouds, IoT and Artificial Intelligence, including technologies, regulation and business aspects. It will cover Internet technologies, including IPv6, DNS, DHCP, IPv4 to IPv6 transition, HTTP 2.0, IPX, IP QoS, Cybersecurity, as well as Internet governance. Also, it will also cover future ultra-broadband Internet access, including future metallic access (MGfast), future optical access (XG-PON, NG-PON2, DWDM), Carrier Ethernet, optical transport network and MPLS/VPN, SDN/NFV and network slicing for fixed and mobile, Submarine cable, Satellite broadband access, as well as future broadband business and regulatory aspects. Further, it will cover ITU’s Cloud Computing, future OTT and telecom clouds (cloud-native PaaS, microservices, Machine Learning as a Service, Blockchain as a Service), clouds security and privacy, ITU’s Internet of Things (IoT) and Web of Things (WoT), Data management and Big Data architecture, IoT/BigData security and trust, uses of Artificial Intelligence (AI)/ Machine Learning (ML) for Internet and telecoms, as well as governance of clouds, IoT and AI. Finally, the course will also cover future ultra-broadband telecom services, future OTT services (OTT voice, OTT video and AR/VR/XR, Web 3.0), tactile Internet, Industry 4.0 and Smart City services, Intelligent operation network and Digital twins, Space-terrestrial integrated network (STIN), future clouds/IoT/AI services, future Internet network neutrality vs. telecom’s QoS, as well as business and regulatory aspects of future telecom, clouds/IoT/AI and OTT services.

This course is targeted at managers, engineers and employees from regulators, government organisations, telecommunication companies and academia, who are interested in understanding, implementation and regulation of Future Broadband: Ultra-broadband Internet, Clouds, IoT and Artificial Intelligence, including technologies, regulatory and business aspects. Other institutions and individuals that are dedicated in building their capacity related to Future Broadband: Ultra-broadband Internet, Clouds, IoT and Artificial Intelligence are also welcome to participate.
