Mobile and ubiquitous systems are a component of almost every digital experience; from retail to health, games to social, music to money, etc. This course covers the basics of mobile technologies (communication, sensing, location, cloud interaction, wearables, UX) while engaging students in application-inspired, project based, learning around the key challenges of resource management, context-sensing, user experience design, cross-platform operation, and security and privacy. Through guided explorations of the literature, students learn to navigate trends likely to influence the future of mobile and ubiquitous systems, including underlying technologies and emerging applications.

This course will introduce the basics of mobile, wireless, and wearable technologies (including communication, sensing, and location features), develop an understanding for the software structures and techniques used to create robust mobile applications that interface to cloud services, study challenges that arise in mobile and ubiquitous systems such as user experience design and resource management, and survey state of the art applications.
