    • Introduction to embedded systems

    • Each summer term, a course entitled "Introduction to embedded systems" is held. This course includes the following topics: definition of terms, specification languages for embedded systems, hardware for embedded systems, real-time operating systems, task mapping, hardware/software codesign, compilers for embedded processors, low-power/low-energy software, real-time scheduling, validation, machine vision.In an associated lab, students learn specifying hierarchical state machines using StateMate and learn programming Lego MindStorm robots. This course typically starts in early May, after the arrival of Indian guest students. The course cam also be attended by other guest students as well as regular students. For regular students, it is counted as three hours (SWS) per week for the lectures and one hour per week for the lab. The course comes with mid-terms and finals.
