Course Rationale

This course explores microprocessor-based computer hardware system with software that is designed to perform a dedicated function, either as an independent system or as a part of a large system. At the core is an integrated circuit designed to carry out computation for real-time operations.

Course Objective

• To get familiar with the basic concepts of  hardware design
  
• To understand models/specification languages to capture system behavior
  
• Interfacing of devices and co-design of hardware/software
  
• To acquaint with tools for validation, verification and simulation
  
• To improve the skills for the development of embedded systems
