This semester, (not limited to) we will focus on Internet of Thing; Android Emulator will be our main tool (require JAVA skill - eclispe)
Links here are useful for Android programming: http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/emulator.html, http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html.
Some of Android application: http://www.android.com/market/#app=com.wsl.CardioTrainer; http://androidapplications.com/
However, we do not limit to Android platform. Iphone OS application, WII-based applicaiton, Kinect application, WP7 application AND Sensor Network are also possible.
The quality of the project is to submit for NSC contest, Microsoft Imagine Cup, and Samart Innovation.

Project Milestone	Description	Completion Date
#1	Mobile and Wirelss Networking Project/App/Testbed Selection Proposal + 10 mins PPT Presentation (what is it) = Topic + (2)Related Work + What makes different/What is it? + Example Source Code	26/02/2018
#2	Final Network Testbed Submission 20 mins Presentation = Poster + PPT + Video (youtube) + Code + Demo	30/04/2018

Note: These are group projects BUT grading individually *write who do what in what%?*

Grading: (Tentative)

Mid-Term Exam	20%
Final-Term Exam	25%
Homework + Class Participation + Quiz	10% +/- 5%
Lab + HW_Lab	20% +/- 5%
Mobile and Wireless Networking Project/Testbed	20% +/- 5%(grading individually)

The students are allowed to bring only "ONE" piece of A4 paper in each exam. The final exam material will be after the mid-term; however, all related contents will be also covered.
The exam includes 1. True/False (+1, -1, and 0), 2. Numerical and Analysis, and 3. Fill in the blank.
The final grade will be curved based on the overall performance of the whole class (probablistic clear cut-off point).
Note that students are allowed to bring only "ONE" piece of A4 paper in each exam with additional non-memorized calculator
