The course is organized in four \r\nparts focising on: (i) Fundamental concepts and \r\nmodels of Cloud Computing; (ii) Cloud-enabling \r\ntechnologies: warehouse-scale machines, \r\nvirtualization, and storage; (iii) Cloud application \r\nprogramming models and paradigms. (iv) Cloud \r\nresource orchestration, monitoring, and DevOps. \r\nThe student will explore different architectural and \r\nservice models of cloud computing, the concepts \r\nof virtualization, containerization, and cloud \r\norchestration. Through lectures, tutorials, and \r\nlaboratory sessions, the student will gain hands\u0002on experience with various features of popular \r\ncloud platforms, such as Openstack, VMWare, \r\nDocker, and Kubernetes, as well as commercial \r\nofferings like Google App Engine, Microsoft \r\nAzure and Amazon Web Service. Advanced \r\ncloud programming paradigms such as Hadoop’s \r\nMapReduce and Microservices are also included in \r\nthe course. Students will also learn the concept of \r\nmodern Big Data analysis on cloud platforms using \r\nvarious data mining tools and techniques. The lab \r\nsessions will cover cloud application development \r\nand deployment, use of cloud storage, creation \r\nand configuration of virtual machines and data \r\nanalysis on cloud using data mining tools. Different \r\napplication scenarios from popular domains that \r\nleverage the cloud technologies such as online \r\nsocial networks will be explained. The theoretical \r\nknowledge, practical sessions and assignments aim \r\nto help students to build their skills to develop large\u0002scale industry standard applications using cloud \r\nplatforms and tools.\n\nOutcome: Not Provided" . .

"Master of Science in Data Science"@en . . "https://datascience.cy/" . "90"^^ . "Presential"@en . "The MSc in Data Science programme brings together the expertise of three departments in the University of Cyprus – Business and Public Administration, Computer Science, and Mathematics and Statistics – to prepare the next generation of data-oriented thinkers.\n\nData science is a modern interdisciplinary field that uses scientific methods, processes, algorithms and systems in order to extract knowledge and insights from data. The programme’s objective is to offer a strong understanding of basic and advanced methods in statistical inference, machine learning, data visualization, data mining, and business analytics.\n\nThe programme is designed for students that have a background in STEM or in Business and Economics, who can demonstrate good knowledge of English, and who, as part of their undergraduate degree, have completed an introductory statistics course, as well as a course in a programming language such as Python and/or R (see Admissions for further information).\n\n\nThe duration of the programme is 18 months (90 ECTS). The first two semesters are dedicated to core courses, and homogenize students’ knowledge on the basics of data science. The third semester allows students to select one of three tracks: Computational Science, Statistics, and Business Analytics. In the summer semester the Capstone project, brings students in contact with real world problems and helps them cement the knowledge and skills they acquired.\n\nOutcome:\nAt the completion of the programme, students will have gained skills that are critical in a modern data-driven world, and will be in a position to think across disciplines and to transform data into actionable insights.\n\nIntended learning outcomes:\nBuild strong background in Data Science\n_ Master powerful tools that address a wide range \nof topics in Data Science\n_ Acquire statistical skills at an appropriately \nadvanced level \n_ Acquire deep knowledge in one or more fields \nof Data Science \n_ Obtain familiarity with basic concepts in other \nNatural and/or Social Sciences, pertinent to \ndata-driven discovery \n• Build research foundations\n_ Get acquainted with faculty research in fields of \nData Science \n_ Demonstrate in depth understanding of a \nbreadth of disciplines, and become familiar with \nthe dominant research directions \n_ Acquire experience of independent work, ideally \nso in the context of class research projects \n• Learn to solve real-world problems\n_ Identify and assess the needs of an organization \nfor a data science task \n_ Collect and manage the data needed \n_ Interpret data science analysis outcomes \n_ Transform findings into actionable business \nstrategies \n_ Communicate data science-related information \neffectively using audience-appropriate format \nand delivery \n_ Value and safeguard the ethical use of data \n• Build multi-context skills\n_ Develop transferable skills such as: oral and \nwritten scientific communication, near fluent \nuse of scientific English, use of information/\ncommunication technology, organization and \nplanning of group work \n_ Exhibit versatility and innovative thinking in \naddressing and managing open questions in \na variety of contexts, as an essential asset \nfor careers in research, industry, commerce, \neducation and the public sector"@en . . . .
