Goals

The purpose of the course is to familiarize the students with modern software engineering methods and tools.

Contents

The purpose of the Embedded Software Project (previously known as Software Engineering Project - Ohjelmistotekniikan työt, 521270A) is to familiarize the students with modern software engineering methods and tools - eg. Ward & Mellor Structured Analysis for Real-Time Systems (RT-SA/SD), or UML/RT. The course is realized as a project-like assignment that can, in principle, be taken from the start to finish in 2-3 weeks by a team of 3 students working full time. Typically the assignments have been completed during 2-5 months requiring approximately 80-120 hours from each project team.

The goal of the project is to have a walk through from the design to implementing and testing. An emphasis is put on proper documentation. Extensive hardware expertise is not necessary, so proportionate attention can be given to the design methodology.

Despite its apparent simplicity, the problem allows plenty of alternative solutions and should be a motivating and educating exercise. Demonstration of a properly functioning system and sufficient documentation is proof of a completed assignment.
