Description

This is a laboratory course focused on the area of application development and deployment in today's commercial, mobile networks. This course is not the same as CS 4261/8803 IMS (or MAS). That other course is a traditional lecture and project course. This lab is intended as a follow-on to the lecture course but I do not enforce it as a pre-requisite.

This class was originally inspired by the Georgia Tech IMS Research Competition. The competition has evolved and is now known as the Convergence Innovation Competition. The purpose of this lab is to provide an opportunity for students to work on projects related to the competition. All students in this class will be working on competition related projects.

While many of the students in this class are from the College of Computing, we encourage students from diverse areas on campus to participate. This includes people from Management, Communications, Music, and many others. In the course projects we have the flexibility to leverage the contributions of people with a wide range of experiences.
