Development of Real-Time Systems

Three people died after the crash landing of an Asiana Airlines aircraft from Seoul, Korea, at San Fransisco International Airport (SFO) on July 6, 2013. The American National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) established that the crash most probably was caused by the flight crew's (in)actions. Three teenage girls lost their lives; two in the airplane and another was accidentally run over by a firetruck.The human factor is often cause for accidents. NTSB and others report that more than 50 percent of plane crashes is caused by pilot error (and for road accidents it is even 90 perc.) Correctly

Course Description

This course is intended for the Master's student and computer engineer who likes practical programming and problem solving!After completing this course, you will have the knowledge to plan and set-up a real-time system both on paper and in practice.The course centers around the problem of achieving timing correctness in embedded systems, which means to guarantee that the system reacts within the real-time requirements.Examples of such systems include airbags, emergency breaks, avionics, and also multi-media systems like video playback and QoS in web servers.The course teaches how to plan real-time systems in theory using established mathematical proofs and how to implement them in practice by using the most common scheduling methods.We also learn and how to program the system in the C language using the FreeRTOS real-time kernel.Finally we have a look at the future of real-time systems namely multi-core real-time systems!This course focus on the learn-by-doing approach with many examples and real-world programming assignments.We have 5 modules, each with a gentle graded quiz in the end and one peer reviewed programming assignment.In case you have no experience with C programming, please check you a practical course like:https://www.coursera.org/learn/arduino-platformThe course is actually quite fun!-Simon Holmbacka / Abo Akademi UniversityCheck out our whole curriculum: https://research.it.abo.fi/

It really good source

By Rajyavardhan S on 8-Oct-19

The content is really very rich but the problem is that it is not consistent in terms of quizzes with assignments and videos.I think that being a peer graded assignment, it takes a lot of time to get a grade.

By Andreina K on 22-Sep-19

Interesting introductory course and easily digestible. Unfortunately I couldn't submit quizzes and programming assignments as I haven't purchased the course. Although I am pretty sure it will be an amazing experience for those who are interested in realtime systems.

excellent course.

By Jean-Baptiste B on 12-Sep-19

It was good amount of leaning new things related to RTOS. This course gives you knowledge to design and choose the RTOS based on your requirement of the project.

awsome job! i love the course the quiz and the assignment,the teacher try his best to help us understand rtos.maybe he can give some useful link about rtos theory ,like how to calculate URM ,U ,frame, but it is still worth to try.in brief , it is almost perfect, hope Simon Holmbacka will give us more and more class like this one .

By Hunter D P on 4-Apr-19

Great class covers a lot of real time systems and scheduling using the SimSo, and FreeRtos tools

good

NICE

By Harjeet S on 28-Feb-19

Thrilled to see a course on this fairly obscure, but essential topic. Thank you!

By Frank T on 11-Feb-19

low quality course, it never talk in core of real time systems.it takes it from a mathematical prospective which made me confused and not interested in completing this course

By Steven R C on 28-Jan-19

If you don't know how to start with RTOS, this course will be OK for you. I think it was overly theoretical and I wish there were more "real-life" programming assignments/lectures. Also adding "model" responses after you send out your work would be beneficial. Despite those drawbacks, I still recommend it.
