Technology of the University Center of International Programmes of Studies of the International Hellenic University.<\/p>\r\n<p>The programme aims to provide graduate level education and is targeted towards graduates who wish to broaden their knowledge in the field of Information and Communication Technology Systems and specifically web and mobile applications. Since its invention in 1989, the World Wide Web has long been the main driver of development and progress, not only in the ICT sector itself but also, and most importantly, in virtually all aspects of human life. Standing on the shoulders of the WWW&#8217;s success, the introduction of smartphones brought about a new technological revolution, which many had foreseen as a necessary next step.<\/p>\r\n<p>Today, these two technological fields have converged into a common track, where applications and infrastructure are advancing hand-in-hand toward the vision of Ubiquitous Computing and Web 3.0. In our effort to address this trend we introduce the &#8220;MSc in Mobile and Web Computing: Internet of Things Applications&#8221; programme. It has been designed to provide a mixture of state-of-the-art knowledge in relevant computer science, communications, web and mobile technologies, blended with essential business skills.<\/p>\r\n<p>The lecture series by leading academic instructors from Greece and abroad, along with projects and dissertation work, mean that students graduate well equipped and highly competitive at international level. This programme is designed for University graduates of\u00a0<strong>Informatics\/Computer Science<\/strong>, and\u00a0<strong>Electrical Engineering<\/strong>\u00a0but also of\u00a0<strong>Natural Sciences<\/strong>\u00a0and Economic and Business Departments, with a background in ICT and a strong motivation to pursue a career in Mobile and Web Computing related domains.<\/p>\r\n<p>The courses of the programme are taught exclusively in English. The academic staff comes from Universities in Greece and abroad. In addition, it is possible to attend the programme combining distance learning with traditional face-to-face teaching<\/p>\r\n<p>Official Government Gazette:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ihu.gr\/ucips\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/03\/\u039a\u03b9\u03bd\u03b7\u03c4\u03ae-\u03ba\u03b1\u03b9-\u0394\u03b9\u03b1\u03b4\u03b9\u03ba\u03c4\u03c5\u03b1\u03ba\u03ae-\u03a5\u03c0\u03bf\u03bb\u03bf\u03b3\u03b9\u03c3\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03ae-\u0395\u03c6\u03b1\u03c1\u03bc\u03bf\u03b3\u03ad\u03c2-\u03c3\u03c4\u03bf-\u0394\u03b9\u03b1\u03b4\u03af\u03ba\u03c4\u03c5\u03bf-\u03c4\u03c9\u03bd-\u03a0\u03c1\u03b1\u03b3\u03bc\u03ac\u03c4\u03c9\u03bd_Msc-in-Mobile-and-Web-Computing_T\u03c1\u03bf\u03c0\u03bf\u03c0\u03bf\u03af\u03b7\u03c3\u03b7-\u039a\u03b1\u03bd\u03bf\u03bd\u03b9\u03c3\u03bc\u03bf\u03cd-\u03a0\u039c\u03a3_2022.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Regulation PDF (in Greek)<\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n    <\/div>\r\n  \r\n    <div class=\"postgraduate-infosection\">\r\n    <div class=\"postgraduate-infobox\">\r\n    <div class=\"postgraduate-infobox-title\">\r\n    <div class=\"postgraduate-infobox-title-container-1\">Key facts <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"postgraduate-infobox-title-container-2\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Info icon\" src=\"\/wp-content\/themes\/Avada-Child-Theme\/template-images\/metaptychiaka\/info.jpg\" \/><\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"postgraduate-infobox-container\">\r\n  \r\n<p><strong>Start date:<\/strong> October 2023<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Application deadline extension:<\/strong> <strong>30 September 2023<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0or until places are filled<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Campus:<\/strong> Thermi, Thessaloniki \r\n    <div id=\"postgraduate-infobox-more\">\r\n  \r\n<p><strong>Duration\/Mode:<\/strong> 18 months (full-time) or 30 months (part-time)\/(available also in distance learning mode)\/weekdays evenings<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Taught language:<\/strong> English<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Entry requirements: <\/strong>An undergraduate degree from a recognised University<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Language requirements: <\/strong>English language knowledge documented with a relevant certificate, corresponding at least to the State Certificate of Language Learning Level B2 or other certificate proving good knowledge of English.

In particular, we will try to examine some strategies that are commonly used to accelerate application level performance in the context of the operation of the Internet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Learning Outcomes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On completing the course students will be able to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Explain the operation of a range of computer networking applications such as email, web, and peer-to-peer file-sharing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Relate the architecture of the Internet to the underlying design principles<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Illustrate the operation of common routing protocols, queuing mechanisms, and congestion control mechanisms<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Develop elements of a network such as gateways and routers that conform to IETF standards with acceptable levels of simplification<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Explain the performance of a given set of routing protocols, queuing mechanisms, and congestion control mechanisms on an example network.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Content<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Introduction to Computer Networks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sockets Programming<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Protocol Stacks and Layering: Application Layer, Physical Layer, Link Layer Basics.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Switching &amp; Flow Control<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ethernet and Bridging<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>IP forwarding &amp; addressing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>IP Packets &amp; Routers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Routing: RIP &amp; OSPF, Routing: BGP, Multicast, DNS, IPv6, tunnelling, NAT, VPN, Virtual circuits, ATM, MPLS, Transport Intro.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>TCP &amp; Congestion Control.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>TCP Performance<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Multimedia\/QoS, QoS &amp; Mobile (IP &amp; TCP)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ad-hoc networks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Web + CDNs + Caching, P2P<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Security \u2013 SSL, Security \u2013 firewalls, DoS<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Broadband access networks (xDSL,UWB, DOCSIS)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/p>\r\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-panel panel-default panel-bb38444d2404d12ba fusion-toggle-no-divider fusion-toggle-boxed-mode\" style=\"--awb-title-color:#007193;--awb-content-color:#1c3f65;\"><div class=\"panel-heading\"><h4 class=\"panel-title toggle\" id=\"toggle_bb38444d2404d12ba\"><a aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"bb38444d2404d12ba\" role=\"button\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-parent=\"#accordion-1725-1\" data-target=\"#bb38444d2404d12ba\" href=\"#bb38444d2404d12ba\"><span class=\"fusion-toggle-icon-wrapper\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><i class=\"fa-fusion-box active-icon awb-icon-minus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><i class=\"fa-fusion-box inactive-icon awb-icon-plus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><span class=\"fusion-toggle-heading\">Web Programming<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div><div id=\"bb38444d2404d12ba\" class=\"panel-collapse collapse \" aria-labelledby=\"toggle_bb38444d2404d12ba\"><div class=\"panel-body toggle-content fusion-clearfix\">\r\n<p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td>Instructor(s):<\/td><td>Dr. A.

A vast number of computing technologies, paradigms, architectures, solutions, applications etc. were born, evolved, matured and died, to give their place in new ones that can harness the ever growing potential of a continuously evolving landscape. Human creativity and ingenuity has played a crucial role in these developments. However, the software market has gone beyond discovering new technologies or improving the existing ones. Except from being operational, software has to be not just easy to use but also intuitive, engaging and pleasant. Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) is a field that addresses the need to create user interfaces that can improve user experience, increase productivity while at the same time providing an environment that is safe and comfortable. HCI involves a confluence of many different disciplines, such as graphic design, cognitive science and psychology, education etc. Therefore, a familiarization of basic concepts of non-computing fields is necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Content<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>&nbsp;&nbsp;Human cognition &amp; perception<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>&nbsp; Usability &amp; UX design: components, testing, report<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>&nbsp; Prototyping: Design static and interactive prototypes of website interfaces and mobile apps<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>&nbsp;&nbsp;Biometric User Research &amp; Affective Computing:&nbsp;FaceTracking&nbsp;tools and application<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>&nbsp; User Research for UX:<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Data collection through questionnaires, interviews, focus groups &amp; observation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mixed analysis<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Quantitative (Questionnaires)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Qualitative: Thematic analysis (open-ended questions, interviews, reviews, comments, etc.)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>Reading<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Interaction Design: Beyond Human-Computer Interaction&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp; 2019 by&nbsp;Helen Sharp&nbsp;(Author),&nbsp;Jennifer Preece&nbsp;(Author),&nbsp;Yvonne Rogers&nbsp;(Author)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Human Computer Interaction \u2013&nbsp; 2007 by&nbsp;Prof Alan Dix&nbsp;(Author),&nbsp;Janet E.
