Challenges in Designing Embedded Systems Courses
نویسنده
چکیده
This article describes my experience in designing and teaching both undergraduate and graduate level embedded systems modules in School of Computing at National University of Singapore. Designing embedded systems modules for an audience with pre-dominantly computer science background poses some unique challenges. However, once the barrier to entry is crossed, the benefits more than outweigh the difficulties.
