Practical embedded systems engineering syllabus for graduate students with multidisciplinary backgrounds
Bastian Haetzer, Gert Schley, Rauf Salimi Khaligh, Martin Radetzki · 2011
This article presents our experience in design of a practical syllabus part of a graduate level embedded systems engineering program for students with multidisciplinary backgrounds. The aim of this syllabus is to address practical issues in design and development of embedded systems composed of software and hardware. It is implemented in a full-semester lab project and a series of practical exercises accompanying the Embedded Systems Engineering Lecture course offered by our group, and complements its theoretical foundations. The syllabus described in this paper was first devised in summer term 2007 and has been improved in winter term 2010/11. The presented syllabus together with the corresponding lab infrastructure allows incorporation of diverse embedded system architectures in future.
