Short Abstract:
The course will cover the main aspects of Edge Computing, from a practical perspective and with the aim to provide useful tool for application development. An initial technology overview will provide the description of MEC and related standards and industry associations working in the field, together with various open-source frameworks available. A particular emphasis will be given to the ETSI MEC standard (Multi-access Edge Computing), by mentioning as well other SDOs and the relationship with 3GPP for the definition of the future 6G systems. A special focus will be given to AI and the recently available frameworks that can help software development. A classroom exercitation will complete the course, where students will be asked to build their own application example exploiting MEC and based on the open-source software introduced during the course.
