Do you want to deepen your knowledge in Industrial Internet of Things? In this course, you will gain deeper knowledge and understanding of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), platforms and cloud services used in manufacturing industries. You will learn to understand the use of IoT platforms and how to design and implement simple systems and how to create value by using IoT solutions within industrial systems. The course will provide you with practical and theoretical knowledge in IIoT, platforms and cloud services as well as in-depth knowledge in production, logistics and product development.

This course provides a fundamental knowledge of IoT, targeting physical devices, communication and computation infrastructure. The course gives theoretical knowledge as well as hands-on experiences to build an IoT application.

The rapid development of digital technologies and advances in communications have led to gigantic amounts of data with complex structures called ‘Big data’ being produced every day at exponential growth. The aim of this course is to give the student insights in fundamental concepts of machine learning with big data as well as recent research trends in the domain. The student will learn about problems and industrial challenges through domain-based case studies. Furthermore, the student will learn to use tools to develop systems using machine-learning algorithms in big data.

The aim of the course is to provide proficiency in cybersecurity analysis and design in industrial settings, with a special focus on smart factories and Industry 4.0. To achieve this, you will learn about advanced cybersecurity concepts, methodologies and tools. You will also be able to apply your knowledge to industrial case studies.

The aim of this course is to provide participants with the principles behind model-driven development of software systems and the application of such a methodology in practice. Modelling is an effective solution to reduce problem complexity and, as a consequence, to enhance time-to-market and properties of the final product.

Learn how to improve industrial processes with modelling methods! Modeling is used to create a virtual representation of a real product. With the help of the model, you can study how the product works, test different options and evaluate the product before it is produced in reality. In this course, you gain knowledge on how to design and implement simulation models in the work of analyzing and improving production systems. You will learn how to plan and perform improvement studies, as well as apply the modeling process within the manufacturing industry. This is a course with a flexible start: The course is given with flexible start and study pace, but we recommend a study pace of 20%, which means that the course takes about 8 calendar weeks.

The course aims to give insights in fundamental concepts of machine learning for predictive analytics to provide actionable, i.e., better and more informed decisions in, forecasting. It covers the key concepts to extract useful information and knowledge from data sets to construct predictive modeling. The course includes three modules: Introduction: overview of Predictive data analytics and Machine learning for predictive analytics. Data exploration and visualization: presents case studies from industrial application domains and discusses key technical issues related to how we can gain insights enabling to see trends and patterns in industrial data. Predictive modeling: consists of issues in construction of predictive modeling, i.e., model data and determine Machine learning algorithms for predicative analytics and techniques for model evaluation.

The aim of the course is to introduce the participants into methods and tools for verifying systems that need to react to external stimuli. The methods use system models with precise formal semantics and will span model-checking as well as deductive verification. A set of simple examples as well as real-world applications will be used throughout the course to illustrate the methods and their tool support. The objective of the course is to understand the underpinning theories of formal verification, and learn how to apply tool support in order to verify system models.

The aim of this course is to give students insight about certification and about what it means to certify/self-assess safety- critical systems with focus on software system and to create a safety case, including a multi-concern perspective when needed and reuse opportunities, when appropriate.
