Fundamentals of Internet Connectivity with Embedded Linux

Course id: 0057

Synopsis

The Internet of Things (IOT) is a vision that leads to a smart world with ubiquitous computing and networking, where computers can be embedded everywhere and programmed to act with or without human intervention. Internetworking is one of the key enabling technologies in IOT as it provides communication capabilities to meet a variety of services for person-to-person, person-to-machine and machine-to-machine interactions.

This course introduces the internetworking capability of Embedded Linux based on the Raspberry Pi platform. Participants will be introduced to setting up servers in Embedded Linux, socket programming and general purpose input/output (GPIO) port controlling through the internet.

What you will learn

This course focuses on the theory and hands-on of networking in Embedded Linux. Upon completing the course, participants would be able to achieve the following learning outcomes:
  • Familiarize with Linux networking environment and tools
  • Configure and set up web server and FTP server
  • Develop basic socket-based networking applications
  • Configure and use the GPIO port over the network

Who should attend

This course is suitable for engineers who would like to embrace networking in embedded Linux and/or begin to develop socket-based networking applications.

Prerequisite

Participants are required to know how to program in C, and have a basic understanding of TCP/IP.

Course methodology

This course is presented in a workshop style with example-led lectures interlaced with demonstrations and hands-on practical for maximum understanding.

Course duration

2 days.
