This course is given in English as it corresponds to a Teaching Unit of the International MSc on Cyber Physical and Social Systems (CPS2): CPS2 engineering and development
Today's IT applications are increasingly complex. Resulting from the integration of multiple functionalities or pre-existing or non-existing services, they run in complex, distributed environments (e.g. Internet of Things, Cloud, Web). In addition to developing techniques for analyzing and processing the masses of data these applications have to cope with, the engineering of such applications is a major challenge if they are to be based on efficient, flexible and scalable architectures, so that they can integrate new data sources and new processes at the lowest possible cost.
The engineering of such systems is a major issue combining modeling, architecture definition, agility and reactivity. It is based on increasingly rich technical foundations, covering the whole cycle of development and production. It is of first importance to understand the challenges and problems of developing such systems, to master and know the models and technologies to address these challenges in order to choose the right models, technologies and methods according to the context and pursued objectives.
The pedagogical objectives of this course are to understand the current challenges and problems of the development of IT system that result from the bottom-up or top-down integration of existing systems (so called systems of systems), and that operate in distributed environments such as Web, IoT, Cloud, etc.
