Abstract

The rapid growth of embedded systems has resulted in a shortage of professionals in embedded software development. Despite the high demand of embedded system professionals, the embedded system curriculum is not well represented in current academic programs. Existing instruction models rely on two prerequisites: 1) significant investment in resources (e.g., embedded system labs), and 2) a higher knowledge base requirement for instructors (e.g., faculty whose expertise not in this area). The universities and colleges lacking in the resources and build-ups in this field are difficult to meet such requirements to offer embedded systems curriculum. We are developing a new embedded system curriculum with real hands-on "Labs In A Box" (LIAB) that is portable, modular, and easy to be adopted worldwide. The modern technologies including wireless and smart sensor network are infused into the courseware to meet the industrial demand. The proposed courseware targets on universities/colleges that have limited resources for teaching undergraduate embedded system curriculum. The new courseware includes teaching modules on foundational and emerging topics, real hands-on lab modules, and projects based on the inexpensive portable LIAB. Accompanying with the LIAB is a textbook entitled "Embedded Software Development with C" published by the Springer publisher.

一个新颖的嵌入式系统课程与便携式动手实验在一个盒子里
嵌入式系统的快速发展导致了嵌入式软件开发专业人才的短缺。尽管对嵌入式系统专业人员的需求很高,但嵌入式系统课程在当前的学术课程中并没有得到很好的体现。现有的教学模式依赖于两个先决条件:1)对资源的重大投资(例如,嵌入式系统实验室),以及2)对教师(例如,不擅长该领域的教师)的更高知识库要求。高校在这方面缺乏资源和基础,很难满足这样的要求,开设嵌入式系统课程。我们正在开发一种新的嵌入式系统课程,具有真正的动手“实验室在一个盒子”(LIAB),它是便携式的,模块化的,易于在全球范围内采用。课件中融入了无线、智能传感器网络等现代技术,以满足工业需求。本课件主要针对资源有限的高校进行本科嵌入式系统课程的教学。新课件包括基础和新兴主题的教学模块,真正的动手实验模块,以及基于廉价便携式LIAB的项目。与LIAB一起发布的是一本名为“嵌入式软件开发与C”的教科书,由Springer出版社出版。
