Intended learning outcomes

Having passed the course, the student should be able to:
• describe the fundamental structure of the platform for embedded computer systems and explain cooperation between the software and the hardware components
• analyse how architecture and implementation decisions influence the performance in an embedded system
• use basic models and analytical methods for embedded realtime systems
• develop software for simple embedded real time systems in order to
• obtain a good understanding of the design process for embedded systems and basic methods and technologies for the design of embedded systems.

Course main content

• Design process for embedded systems. Design requirements.
• The platform for embedded systems and its components.
• Analysis and optimisation of software for embedded systems.
• Periodic process model, basic scheduling algorithms and scheduling analysis.
• Parallel processes and communication mechanisms.
• Realtime operating systems.
• Acceleration of the system through additional hardware. Co-design of hardware and software.
