Course Description and Topics covered


Note: As this course transitions to a new instructor, details below are subject to change.
This course will provide students, who have minimal embedded software experience, the
foundational knowledge needed for the Embedded Systems Engineering core curriculum.
The course will breakdown the software hardware interactions, study the implications of the
C programming language to the underlying architecture, provide C programming
applications, and instill efficient, high performance, and robust software design techniques.
Testing and debug practices will be developed and need to be successful for assignments.
Students will participate in several development projects throughout the semester to
reinforce classroom topics.
 Resource constraints and real-time performance requirements
 Development environment including
 Version control
 Configuration management
 Development kits
 Cross compiling and debugging
 Advanced C programming
 Software architecture, design and design documentation
