This course exposes students to the project management planning, project evaluation and software project estimation. Student will also learn about risk management, resource allocation, monitoring and control and managing people and organizing teams. A project discussion will be held at the end of the course where students will implement software project management that have been learned.
This course introduces students to the techniques of how to measure the effectiveness of a computer algorithm. At the beginning of the course, students will be introduced to knowledge of functions, relational relations, and some notations including asymptotic notation, real-value functions and logarithms. Students will then be exposed to applications that use these notations to analyse an algorithm.
This course exposes the students to the technologies of Internet. Important topics such as Internet communication and networking, sensor networking, Internet of Things, security, measurement and peering of the Internet are taught to the students.
Machine learning is concerned with the question of how to make computers learn from experience. The ability to learn is not only central to most aspects of intelligent behaviour, but machine learning techniques have become key components of many software systems. This course covers both well-established and advanced machine learning techniques such as Neural Network, Support Vector Machines etc.
This course discusses the general methods used in conducting research. The style and method of writing a research proposal paper is also discussed. In addition, issues related to the attitude and value of professionalism as researchers and ethics in writing and publishing are also being highlighted in this course.
This course aims to provide a space for students to demonstrate social skills, teamwork and responsibility in organizing postgraduate colloquium ethically, morally and professionally. In addition, effective oral communication is also emphasized through the individual presentation of the organized colloquium.
This course enables students to expand their knowledge, understanding and skills that are required to solve problem in related field using scientific way. This includes planning, executing and presenting significant research output/project.
