IoT Programming and Big Data (edX)

Offered by Curtin University, CurtinX,
IoT Programming and Big Data (edX)

Learn how to apply software solutions for different systems and Big Data needs to your IoT designs. The Internet of Things is creating massive quantities of data, and managing and analysing it requires a unique approach to programming and statistics for distributed data sources.

This course will teach introductory programming concepts that allow connection to, and implementation of some functionality on, IoT devices, using the Python programming language. In addition, students will learn how to use Python to process text log files, such as those generated automatically by IoT sensors and other network-connected systems.
Learners do not need prior programming experience to undertake this course, and will not learn a specific programming language - however Python will be used for demonstrations. This course will focus on learning by working through realistic examples.
This course is part of the Internet of Things (IoT) MicroMasters Program.

What you'll learn

  • Appreciate the software needs of an IoT project
  • Understand how data is managed in an IoT network
  • Apply software solutions for different systems and Big Data to your IoT concept designs
  • Create Python scripts to manage large data files collected from sensor data and interact with the real world via actuators and other output devices.

Introduction to Object-Oriented Programming with Java III: Exceptions, Data Structures, Recursion, and GUIs (edX)

Learn how to create and use exceptions, data structures, recursion, and graphical user-interfaces (GUIs). This course provides students with the knowledge to handle and even create exceptions to achieve graceful error handling in programs. They will also create and utilize data structures, including lists and files. Students will also learn about recursion and how it can be a useful approach to repetition in a program. Finally, students will learn how to develop basic graphical user interfaces (GUIs) using JavaFX.

LAFF – On Programming for Correctness (edX)

Learn to apply formal methods to systematically develop correct, loop-based programs, an essential skill for computer programmers. Is my program correct? Will it give the right output for all possible permitted inputs? Computers are now essential in everyday life. Incorrect programs lead to frustration in the best case and disaster in the worst. Thus, knowing how to construct correct programs is a skill that all who program computers must strive to master.
