TDDA47	Real Time and Concurrent Programming, 4 ECTS-points /Realtids- och processprogrammering/ Advancement level: B
	Aim: To understand the basic notion of process and learn concurrent programming in a high level language. To give understanding for problem issues, methods and structuring mechanisms for realtime and concurrent- programming. In particular the course focuses on systems that interact with an external environment of sensors and actuators. Prerequisites: For I, Ii: TDDB32 Object-Oriented Programming: Data Structures and Alg. For M: TDDB21 Programming and Data Structures For Y: TDDB20 Programming and Data Structures or corresponding good knowledge in programming using an imperative programming language, (e.g., Ada, C or Java). Supplementary courses: Embedded system simulation and verification Course organization: At the lectures the theory part will be presented. Exercises will train the student on the presented material and be preparatory for the laborative work. Course content: Part I: Concurrent program execution in contrast to sequential. Strategies for communication and mechanisms for synchronization in process- interaction. Part II: Executives and operating systems for real time systems. Resource management. Introduction to real-time scheduling. Design of real-time systems. Course literature: Burns & Wellings: Real Time Systems and their programming languages, Addison Wesley. Laboratory lesson material, published by the Department of Computer and Information Science. Handouts during lessons and lectures.
TEN1	A written examination, 2 p.
LAB1	programming exercises, 1 p.
	TDDA47 cannot be combined with TDDB12, TDDB47 or TDDB63 in the final degree.
