About "Technology of software development for real-time systems"

This course has two major modules that describe aspects of real-time systems.. The first module provides an introduction and then focuses on systems engineering. It is important to understand developing or engineering systems before looking at real-time systems. The second module evaluates real-time systems and programming technologies.

We lack the technology to program or develop actual real-time systems. Therefore, you will explore the topic of real-time systems and programming through creating presentations, finding resources, or writing assignments.

Module 1: Systems Engineering topics

1. Introduction to Systems
2. Introduction to Systems Engineering
3. Relevance and Benefits of Systems Engineering
4. Needs and Requirements

Module 2: Real-time Systems topics

1. Foundations: real-time systems, time-dependent information, logical and temporal order
2. Modeling of RTS: state and event, components, interfaces, real-time information
