Mobile Computing
Fall 2004 Course #7666159-41 (English)
Tues 3-4:15pm and Fri 3-4:15pm (room 23413)

Course Description: The student will acquire an understanding of wireless and mobile systems and
will be able to correlate with new advances in this area. This course introduces basic concepts for
wireless communication of both voice and data information. Many underlying system issues related to
mobility support and channel allocation will be covered. Wireless communication using satellites will
also be covered. Discussions on Ad Hoc networks will help understand why they are useful. In addition,
the course requires a survey of recent information on one specific topic. A group simulation project
would require implementation of a concept in wireless technology.

Course Details:
1. Assigned readings are from the textbook and suggested to complete before each class. At
least, you should read the introductory material at the beginning of each chapter.
2. Assignments must be submitted at the beginning of the class on the due date. Late
submissions will be accepted with 10% penalty each day.
3. All exams are closed-book, closed-notes cumulative exams and cover the material up to the
point mentioned one week prior to the exam date.
4. All works in this class must be done individually. Anyone cheating on work assigned in this
class will receive a zero for that assignment, i.e. submitting the same programs with slight
changes of variable names and tab sizes, etc.
5. You MUST have a computer access such as an account offered by SICE, or your own PC.
6. Anyone who misses an exam without prior approval of the instructor will have -30 points
instead of 0, and there will be no makeup exams.
7. Hand phone rings during the lecture cost the weight of one absence, and two lates for the
lecture cost one absence.
8. Instructors accidental class skip will be announced through the web page 3 hours before the
class. Hence, you have to check the class home page at least once a week.

Course Term Project:
30 co-authored international SCI papers in mobile computing area will be distributed to students.
They can choose any one to study from those distributed for the project and they can develop to
have the better results of the scheme.
1) selecting the target paper - 2 weeks
2) read related works - 3 weeks
3) 10 page proposal with presentation - 3 weeks
4) idea development - 2 weeks
5) performance evaluation - 3 weeks
6) writing a paper with presentation - 3 weeks

Grading Policy:
Biweekly assignments (20%) and a term project (20%), attendance (10%), midterm #1 (10/22(Fri)
2:55-4:25pm 25%), midterm #2 (12/17(Fri) 2:55-4:25pm 25%)
Note: schedule for the course project will be announced in the class based on the number of
students registered.
