ELECTIVE COURSE -> not offered every semester
Learning objectives:
The students
are able to formulate requirements in the environment of embedded systems (ES)
master object-oriented modeling and implementation of ES with efficient use of memory and CPU
are able to use a common operating system with POSIX interface for the development of ES
use processes and threads for concurrent programming and are proficient in methods for inter-process communication and synchronization in ES
can implement the connection of sensors and actuators using event-driven software architectures
know aspects of embedded applications in communication protocols and bus systems and derive influences on system behavior from them
formulate requirements from ES to operating systems and know examples of this
understand quality assurance methods and influences on maintainability
