151818939 SMART SYSTEMS INTEGRATION AND SIMULATION ( 3 Crd.Hrs )

The course aims to provide a fundamental review for the complex adaptive systems theory followed by presenting the different types of techniques used in the smart systems from the perspectives of adaptation such as the growing and increasingly strategic field of Smart Systems Integration. Multi Agent systems will have a special part in this course. The course will guide the students to use new methods and tools for the integration and simulation for the complex and adaptive smart objects in smart environment. Some approaches will be described, and explicit examples will be given. Smart components and systems of systems concepts will be the considered as a special constraint for this course. The structure of multi-sensors and multi-actuator systems will be described in the second stage of this course. Smart Systems will be presented as combine data processing with sensing, actuating and communication and how the student be able to analyse complex situations, and how his system will take self-decisions and be predictive. The course will describe the relation between the research and the industry with different examples related to real problem such as water, weather, transportation, pollution and security. Course Outcomes The student will be guided to build his own simulation process using some proper simulators. Their simulation models will be evaluated. The students also will be able to create the co design environment that is consisted of different system of systems. A long report will be delivered by the end of the course. This course will target the students who are willing to specialize in hardware/software modelling, component integration and simulation under different positions, researchers in dynamic systems, self-decision systems, etc.
