Review process

• Division into groups
• Selecting a group topic
• Preparation of the specification in the group
• Workshop day 1: Presentation of the Specification
• Develop an implementation
• Evaluation
• Workshop day 2: Presentation of the results

Preliminary organization

• f the course
• Following the preliminary
• Possibly via myTI
• Partner & times should be respected as far as possible
• Group meetings Wednesday 15:00-17:00, 30 min
• Discussion of exercises and progress

Group Topic

• Deepening topics from the fields of real-time systems and embedded systems
• Defining the learning goal for each group
• Select individually for each group, depending on the inclination of the group members
• A problem to be worked out also theoretically during the exercise
• The practice session should implement some aspects of the topic

Possible Topics

• Real-time aspects and communication
• Model-based design
• Software Engineering
• Security
• Robustness
• Hybrid Systems
• Control Systems

Specification

• Independent acquisition of an application based on

the group of the theme

• The only restriction is to be realized somehow
• n the Target
• Consultation with the Assistant
• Next Steps:

1. Abstract 3. Requirements 2. Work plan 4. Description

Part 1: October – Mid November

• Goal:

§ Meet the target § Specification

• Task:

§ Programming different micro-controller features

• Result:

§ Programming the driver § Description of the specification

Part 2: Mid November-End of January

• Goal:

§ Development of an embedded system project § Protocol + Application Development

• Task:

§ Programming different micro-controller features

• Result:

§ Programming the driver § Description of the specification

Workshop Days

• Objective:

§ Promotion of communication among the groups § Exercising and strengthening their own communication skills § Presentation of their own results § Identify common problems and solutions

• Implementation:

§ Workshop Day 1: Presentation of the groups + specification § Workshop Day 2: Demonstration of Work and Results

Communication/Instruction

• One slot per group per week with Assistant
• Forum: will be read by students and assistants:

Exercise Boards

Laboratory Protocol

• Project outline for the lab

(including project idea, time plan, milestones, roles)

• Specification and design of the prototype
• Implementation and validation plan
• Validation results

Grading at the End of the Semester

• Quality of the protocol of the work [40%]

§ Completeness § Clarity of Illustration § Form (Layout, Spelling) § Correctness

• Workshop Days [30%]

§ Presentation § Competence

• Example Exercises [30%]

§ Correct functionality § Meeting the evaluation guidelines (see Homepage)

Tips for a successful completition

• Previous knowledge required
• Timely start with the examples
• Clean specification + Testplan draw up
• Group discussions to prepare well, be effectively used
