2 Introduction Embedded System is a physical system with a computing system embedded in it, to execute a specific task. Computing systems used in embedded systems have constraints like power consumption, storage space, and size and necessarily have to operate in real time. The challenge lies in design and integration of hardware and software to meet the constraints. Microprocessor based system design industry has undergone revolutionary changes in the past decade and stressed upon the importance of integration of hardware and software in the design of system. This includes not only safety-critical applications such as automotive devices and controls, railways, aircraft, aerospace and medical devices, but also communications, 'mobile worlds' and 'e-worlds', the 'smart' home, clothes, factories etc. All of these have wide-ranging impacts on society, including security, privacy and modes of working and living. More than 98% of processors applied today are in embedded systems, and are no longer visible to the customer as 'computers' in the ordinary sense. New processors and methods of processing, sensors, actuators, communications and infrastructures are 'enablers' for this very pervasive computing. On completion of the training programme, the student can seek challenging career options both in hardware and software development related to Embedded Systems. Course Aims At the end of this course, student will be able to 1. Understand embedded processors and write programming 2. Use software s such as C, MPLAB, and Keil to meet the industrial requirements 3. Execute the design and development of embedded system providing knowledge of Advanced C Programming Embedded processors and Embedded Real Tim Operating Systems. 4. Understand the recent developments and applications of embedded system technology Who should attend? Engineering Graduates and Postgraduates from Electronics & Communication, Computer Science and Information Science
