2024 – Semester 1

Individual Assignment

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mini project guidelines and Marking scheme

The assignment will be in the form of a mini- project. Students are expected to use the mobile
Ubiquitous computing knowledge acquired in the module to analyze contemporary issues
facing society or the country at large using the knowledge acquired in their study. This approach
is meant to assist students in practically applying the mobile ubiquitous computing
knowledge acquired to address real- world issues.

Background to the project

Students need to address mobile ubiquitous computing solutions for one of the following
listed topic areas.

-To Secure, Manage and control information of Internet of Things (IoT)

-To Auto control and configure intermediate devices of Networks
-To increase the Quality of Service (QoS) of MANETs.
-To increase the Quality of Service (QoS) of Web browsing
-To increase the Quality of Service (QoS) of Network Security
-To have a Smooth the fuel distribution in Sri Lanka
-To verify and identify fully vaccinated individuals (Covid 19)
-To learn Software Defined Networks
-To learn Machine learning and Artificial Intelligence
-To implement a smart home for a family with toddlers
-To make FTTH and FTTC efficient and fast
-To pay utility bills
-To facilitate Project scheduling
Select one topic area and write a report according to given guidelines
