SWT-Seminar in Summer Semester 2018: Real-Time and Embedded Systems (SWT-SEM-B/M)
Modern
airplanes, trains, vehicles, medical devices, and industrial plants
rely on hundreds of real-time embedded systems that must deliver correct
functionality at precise times.
This seminar systematically
examines the following aspects involved with the development of such
systems: designing and programming with low-level and high-level
languages, and with model-based engineering frameworks; implementation
via code generation and task scheduling; and validation with simulation,
static timing analysis, and model-based testing.
Through this
seminar, students will gain an insight into how these aspects interplay
and affect the functional capabilities and analysability of the
resulting systems, and an appreciation of the effort and skillset
required to successfully construct a real-time embedded system. An ideal
seminar student would have an interest in real-time systems, embedded
systems, conncurrent software, software/hardware co-design, and be in at
least the fourth semester of their Bachelor's studies or beyond.
