Entry requirements
Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.
Prerequisites
Basic courses in digital design, computer architectures, programming.Intended learning outcomes
The aim of the course is to address the particular problems concerning
the design of complex embedded systems. Modern design methodologies are presented with an emphasis on early design phases, such as modeling,
verification and system-level synthesis, not covered by traditional methods.
After completing the course, the students should be able to:
- Apply modern system-level methods and tools for the design of real-time embedded systems.
- Use modern modeling, verification and simulation tools in the context of system-level design.
- Analyze the particular features of the application and select the most appropriate modeling approach.
- Evaluate the implications of system level design decisions, regarding system architecture, task scheduling and mapping, on the final system performance, cost, and power consumption.
- Describe the complex interactions between hardware architecture and software implementation.
- Perform design space exploration using a system-level simulation environment.
Course content
Embedded systems and their design, Design flow, Specification and modeling of embedded systems, Simulation and estimation, Architectures for embedded systems, Mapping and scheduling.
Teaching and working methods
The course consists of a series of lectures, lesson and laboratory exercise.
