Course Description
A smart system, often called an 'intelligent' system, is a modern technological solution that uses various sensors, data analytics and automation to enhance its capabilities and performance in real-time or over time. These systems gather information from their environment, use it intelligently, and decide and take action for achieving certain goals and optimising processes. Smart systems can be found in a wide range of applications and industries, including industrial automation, smart factories, energy management, smart cities, transportation, smart home systems, healthcare, environmental monitoring, agriculture, finance and retail. Smart system simulation refers to the process of using computer-based simulation to model, analyse and test the behaviour and performance of intelligent systems. This approach is particularly useful in the development and refinement of complex systems that incorporate elements of automation, data analysis, artificial intelligence and decision-making. Smart system simulation is particularly valuable when it is impractical, costly or risky to test a system directly in the real world.
