IN5031 – Protocols and AI for Future Internet

This course focuses on building advanced knowledge, hands-on skills, and critical awareness in communication networks, AI/ML technologies and applications, and Future Internet infrastructures.

By the end of the course, you will be able to:

• Critically evaluate state-of-the-art and emerging communication solutions (optical, wireless, IoT, IPv6, Wi-Fi, multicast) and formulate network concepts ensuring QoS.
• Analyze and mitigate cross-domain real-time systems’ vulnerabilities and how to apply secure communication protocols against cyber threats and malware.
• Explain and evaluate different high-performance IP router designs and content delivery systems for large-scale data traffic.
• Integrate and make use of AI/ML and generative AI agents for traffic control, classification, privacy protection, and security monitoring.
• Apply and optimize AI/ML-based Big Data management, analytics, and cloud solutions for large-scale networked systems.
• Model and understand IoT-enabled infrastructures (smart cities, smart grids, energy trading) and validate their scalability and efficiency.
• Synthesize and evaluate next-generation Internet solutions, including IPv6, content delivery networks, and future-oriented architectures used in industry.

Students admitted at UiO must apply for courses in Studentweb. Students enrolled in Master's Degree Programmes not belonging to IFI can, on application, be admitted to the course if this is cleared by their own study programme.

Nordic citizens and applicants residing in the Nordic countries may apply to take this course as a single course student.
