Masters Degrees in Mechanisms & Machines, France

The "Big Data" phenomenon is rooted in the field of data science and engineering, which aims at developing both computer and mathematical tools for data storage and processing. An increasing volume of data are daily produced by modern day industrial processes (in fields such as energy, intelligent transport systems, aviation industry and many others...), and fuelled by the rise of multimedia tools and the Internet of Things in our daily life.

OBJECTIVES:

• Combining computer and statistical sciences to develop cutting-edge and fundamental tools to efficiently address applied issues related to data processing.
• Learn how to develop methods, algorithms and software able to extract value out of huge masses of heterogonous data with several dimensions.
• Provide a cohesive blend of technical classes in data mining, software engineering, distributed systems coupled with fundamentals in Business, Innovation and Project Management to develop profiles which are highly valued by corporate recruiters.

COURSE DESCRIPTION

The Post Master's degree in Communications for ITS offers the necessary knowledge required by engineers and managers to design Connected Cars / Connected Mobility applications to fully apprehend the innovations and unique opportunities of the Vehicular Communications industry.

CONTEXT - Connected Cars and ITS

Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) promise to be one of the most dynamic and innovative specialization fields with a large expected industrial and business growth over the next decade. ITS aim at adding information and communication technologies to transportation infrastructures and vehicles in order to allow public agencies and transportation companies to improve

• traffic safety by reducing accidents.
• traffic efficiency by regulating and better distributing the traffic load, or smoothing tolling station congestions.
• the carbon footprint towards green driving and logistics, or deploying fully electric vehicles.

OBJECTIVES

The emphasis of the Post Master's degree is on:

• Providing a balanced theoretical and practical expertise required by leading industries in the ITS domain.
• Analysis and quantifications of the benefits of ITS on the environments and the society.
• Understanding the challenges and required mechanisms to efficiently interconnect vehicles and transportation infrastructures.
• Gaining a deep understanding on major application domains of ITS, such as traffic safety, traffic efficiency, or infotainment and comfort.
• Formulation and modeling of problems typically observed in ITS applications,
• investigation of the impact and benefits of vehicular communications in the different application areas of ITS
