Embedded System Integration 3(2-3) Semester: January

Rationale: This project-oriented course will consist of the specification, design, implementation, integration, and testing of an Embedded System. The topics are covered including Embedded Systems HW, Embedded Systems SW, interfacing, communications, control, design technology, and validation. It should help to motivate students to put more emphasis on education in embedded systems by integrating knowledge from many different areas. Students work in groups of 2-4 persons to design, implement and test a small Embedded System.

Catalog Description: Embedded Systems, Computer, Hardware/Software co-design, Interfacing, Control, Communication, Real-time operating systems.

Pre-requisite: None
