Embedded System Design: Embedded Systems Foundations of Cyber-Physical Systems, and the Internet of Things

by Peter Marwedel

Overview

Embedded systems are information processing systems embedded into products such as cars, telecommunication, or fabrication equipment. Marwedel (computer science, University of Dortmund, Germany) provides material for a first course on embedded systems for third-year students in computer science, computer engineering, and electrical engineering who have a basic knowledge of computer hardware and software. Chapters cover specifications, SDL, UML, VHDL, embedded system hardware, embedded operating systems and middleware, hardware and software design in implementing embedded systems, and validation.

About the Author

Dr. Peter Marwedel studied physics at the University of Kiel, Germany. He received his PhD in that subject in 1974. As a post-doc, he published some of the first papers on high-level synthesis and retargetable compilation in the context of the MIMOLA hardware description language. In 1987, his habilitation thesis in computer science (a thesis required for becoming a professor) was accepted. He held a chair for computer engineering and embedded systems at the computer science department of TU Dortmund from 1989 until 2014. He is also chairing ICD, a local spin-off of TU Dortmund. His research interests include design automation for embedded systems, in particular the generation of efficient embedded software. Focus is on energy efficiency and timing predictability. Since 2001, Dr. Marwedel published papers on energy-efficient software and compiler-supported use of scratchpad memories. He is the author of one of the few textbooks on embedded systems. Since 2011, he is the vice-chair of the collaborative research center SFB 876, aiming at resource-efficient analysis of large data sets. Dr. Marwedel is an IEEE Fellow.
