Anotace:

The goal of this course is to provide students with basic knowledge about software development for real-time systems, for example in control and embedded applications. The main focus is on embedded systems equipped with a real-time operating system (RTOS). Lectures will cover real-time systems theory, which can be used to formally verify timing correctness such systems. Another set of lectures will introduce methods and techniques used for development of safety-critical systems, whose failure may have catastrophic consequences. During labs, students will first solve a few simple tasks to familiarize them with basic components of VxWorks RTOS and to benchmark the used OS and hardware (Xilinx Zynq). The obtained metrics represent the typical criteria for assessing the suitability of a given platform for the given application. After the simple tasks, students will solve complex task of time-critical motion control application which will require full utilization of RTOS features. All the tasks at the labs will be implemented in C (or C++) language.

Požadavky:

Attendee must be capable of writing basic C programs and understand principles of multithreaded programming. It is an advantage (but not requirements) to finish B0B36APO and B4B35OSY before taking this course.
