Embedded System Design 论文

摘要

Seven years after its first release, it became necessary to publish a new edition of the author's text book on embedded system design. This paper explains the key changes that were incorporated into the second edition. These changes reflect seven years of teaching of the subject, with two courses every year. The rationale behind these changes can also be found in the paper. In this way, the paper also reflects changes in the area over time, while the area becomes more mature. The paper helps understanding why a particular topic is included in this curriculum for embedded system design and why a certain structure of the course is suggested.
