Aim:
To understand the particular problems concerning the design of complex embedded systems. To learn about modern design methodologies with an emphasis on early design phases, not covered by traditional methods, including modeling, verification and system-level synthesis. To get familiar with modeling, verification and simulation tools. The course covers aspects of system modeling, verification, and synthesis, starting from an abstract, implementation independent specification. It also discusses the topics of hardware/software partitioning, embedded real-time systems, and power related issues at the system level.

Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
TSEA 03 Switching Theory and Logical Design TSEA19/20 Computer Hardware and Basic Computer Architectures TDDB28/TDDB57 Data Structures and Algorithms (or equivalent courses)

Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

Organisation:
The course consists of a series of lectures, lessons and laboratory exercises, as well as the elaboration and presentation of a report.
