Ubiquitous information technology (Ubiquitous Computing) addresses the ubiquitous (or pervasive) availability of information processing. The availability of these systems has the objective to facilitate the operational environment in technical scenarios or in daily life of humans and to enrich it with new capabilities. This module provides fundamentals of ubiquitous computing and further topics like network and Internet technologies, security aspects, the analysis of autonomously operating systems in Organic Computing and also the utilisation of information and communication technologies in highly decentralized energy systems.

The total workload for this module is approximately 270 hours. For further information see German version.
