Some examples of embedded systems at School of Electrical Engineering
The Microsystem Technology Laboratory Vi jobbar ju med MEMS och teknologi för att kombinera elektronik och MEMS eller flera lager elektronik på chip och i skräddarsydd kapsling. Det här är helt klart relevant för inbyggda system. Vi erbjuder också kurser om MEMS för studenter från bland annat programmet inbyggda system.
Communication Networks Laboratory Vi undersöker användningen inom maskin-till-maskin kommunikation av ett kommunikationssystem som utvecklats vid KTH under sex år. Systemet möjliggör att mobila enheter kommunicerar direkt utan infrastruktur (men kan utökas med infrastruktur) och det bygger på principen "publish/subscribe". System kan användas för insamling och spridning av data i industriella, i gruvor, skogar och inom areala miljöer. KTH School of Electrical Engineering
The Automatic Control Laboratory performs, among others, basic research on Embedded Wireless Networked Systems The Laboratory is equipped with a large infrastructure for wireless networked embedded control - The infrastructure includes hardware equipment with hundreds wireless embedded nodes and software for the demonstration and development of protocols for the control of networks and protocols for the control over embedded networks. - Several implementation concerning Intelligent Transportation Systems, Smart Grids, Industrial and Building Automation have been carried out. - Examples include the demonstration of the formation control of several heavy-duty vehicles, the wireless closedloop control of unmanned ground and aerial vehicles.
The Automatic Control Laboratory performs, among others, basic research on Embedded Wireless Networked Systems - Experiments are currently being developed together with ABB, Fortum, and Ericsson within the Stockholm Royal Seaport Project. - The laboratory infrastructure is being integrated with the KTH campus-wide HVAC system to investigate novel control and fault detection embedded schemes for building automation. - The Laboratory is currently supported and used by several national and European projects such as EU FP7 projects Hydrobionets, FeedNetBack, NoE HYCON2, EIT ICT Labs, VINNOVA NECS, WiComPI projects, SSF and VR projects, including the KTH ACCESS Linnaeus Centre. The Laboratory provides the courses at the Master Level "EL2745 Principles of Wireless Sensor Networks" and "EL2450 Hybrid and Embedded Control Systems".
EL2745 Wireless Sensor and Actuator Networks Networks embedded nodes for of sensing, computing, transmitting and receiving, wirelessly networked for communication, control, and actuation purposes Characteristics of WSNs - Battery-operated nodes - Limited wireless communication - Mobility of nodes - No/limited central manager WSNs make Internet of Things possible Typical power consumption of a node

How can industry influence us? Our courses and program stucture changes slowly - Initiating new courses and recruit studenst takes time Thesis projects in one approach, to reach students at the end of thier either bachelor (first 3 years) or Master (5 years) - Bachelor can be more difficult, we have different contexts. This year Project courses we are still working with implementing project courses each year. - Embedded systems projects can be suitable - Industry could help suggesting projects, but TTT KTH School of Electrical Engineering
Development efforts at EE-school The 5 year program will be developed, and a new structure will be implemented HT 2013 - The groups first meeting will be in beginning of May - Datorteknik mandatory opens for more embedded systems projects - Still a strong base in math and fysics - Three core areas: Electric power engineering (including Smart Grids), Wireless systems and System Contol (including embedded systems) KTH School of Electrical Engineering
