Goals

The goal of this course is to explore the interaction between the
disciplines of control and embedded systems. These two areas are
interfering in both directions. Control applications are commonly
implemented as real-time embedded systems. On the other hand, control
theory is more and more frequently used to solve resource management
problems in embedded systems, such as scheduling.
While, traditionally, control design and real-time systems
engineering have been approached completely separately, it is
becoming important to look at these two fields in their interaction.

Prerequisites

Basic, undergraduate level knowledge in real-time systems and control.
