In this work, we look at the Arduino as a design platform for a course on embedded systems
and ask the question, is the Arduino platform suitable for teaching computer engineers and …

This paper surveys how the computer input/output (I/O) subsystem is taught in introductory
undergraduate courses. It is important to study the educational process of the computer I/O …

Teaching embedded system design is challenging, as the subject covers a wide range of
aspects, and also involves skills that students do not learn from a text book. As a result …

As embedded systems are becoming prevalent in everyday life, many universities are
incorporating embedded systems-related courses in their undergraduate curricula …

As embedded systems permeate an ever-widening circle of safety-and mission-critical
applications, robust testing of embedded software remains of paramount importance. Yet …

The many-core Intel SCC processor is one of a class of emerging, highly parallel computer
architectures. Intel provides a modern Linux kernel which, running on the SCC as a separate …

We present Xipx, the first port of a major educational operating system to a processor in the
emerging class of many-core architectures. Through extensions to the proven Embedded …

The rapid growth of embedded systems results in a shortage of professionals for embedded
software development. However, embedded system education is not well represented in …

We describe the renovation of our compilers curriculum to meld together an established
object-oriented textbook compiler with an inexpensive embedded target platform. The result …

We present extensions to the Embedded Xinu educational operating system that, when
coupled with a target device like the Cisco-Linksys WRT54GL, provide for an extremely …
