Aims of the teaching

This course aims at introducing the fundamental concepts of the computer networking (Internet and industrial IoT) for smart grids.
Course content: Introduction to Python language, network architectures and communication protocol concepts (layering, data units, services, protocol, OSI and TCP/IP models), Internet technology (IP addressing and routing, DNS, TCP/UDP, SMTP, HTTP), LANs (Ethernet, VLAN and switching, WiFi), distributed applications (client-server model, socket programming), case studies (e.g., real-time Ethernet and TSN in IEC61850 substation automation, CAN network for distributed real-time applications, wireless and wired IoT with MQTT, etc.)

Intended Learning outcomes (measured by the assessment)

At the end of the teaching module, the student should:
Demonstrate knowledge on computer communication fundamental architectures, concepts and technologies;
Demonstrate ability to understand, use, analyse, model, design and implement networking solutions for the data communication needs of smart energy grids.
