Course description and aims
The overview of modern information and communication systems and related research topics will be introduced by leading researchers in the front lines of the information and communication industries.
In the first half of this course, we present the latest technology to understand deep information such as the inside of a person and a thing that humans could not catch, by sensing the world around us as computer-processable data and applying advanced AI to the data.
In the second half of this course, we consecutively discuss core, access networks and IP networks after explaining the overview of the communication networks. Moreover, we discuss the network service trends and a future roadmap of the communication networks.
Student learning outcomes
1) Students will understand the evolution of information systems, latest research activities and the future technology trends.
2) Students will understand the basic principles of acoustic processing, image processing, and image recognition.
3) Students will learn pros and cons for wireline (especially optical fiber) communication and mobile communication. And they learn technologies that contribute to current communication networks.
4) Students will learn the advanced technologies, trends, and future issues with the reference of the latest international conferences and technical papers.
