About the course

Project work in groups covering the following areas: development environments for embedded software, resource-aware programming, hardware programming, developing multi-threaded software, inter-process communication with shared memory and message passing, programming using real-time operating systems, fault detection and testing, fault tolerance and fault recovery.

To pass, you must be able to:

  • develop embedded software of high quality using high-level programming in e.g. C
  • develop embedded systems based on real-time operating systems
  • develop software on embedded hardware platforms taking limitations such as memory size, processor capacity, and bandwidth into account
  • develop correct and efficient software using fault detection and other test systems.
