A course is the basic teaching unit, it's design as a medium for a student to acquire comprehensive knowledge and skills indispensable in the given field. A course guarantor is responsible for the factual content of the course.
For each course, there is a department responsible for the course organisation. A person responsible for timetabling for a given department sets a time schedule of teaching and for each class, s/he assigns an instructor and/or an examiner.
Expected time consumption of the course is expressed by a course attribute extent of teaching. For example, extent = 2 +2 indicates two teaching hours of lectures and two teaching hours of seminar (lab) per week.
At the end of each semester, the course instructor has to evaluate the extent to which a student has acquired the expected knowledge and skills. The type of this evaluation is indicated by the attribute completion. So, a course can be completed by just an assessment ('pouze zápočet'), by a graded assessment ('klasifikovaný zápočet'), or by just an examination ('pouze zkouška') or by an assessment and examination ('zápočet a zkouška') .
The difficulty of a given course is evaluated by the amount of ECTS credits.
The course is in session (cf. teaching is going on) during a semester. Each course is offered either in the winter ('zimní') or summer ('letní') semester of an academic year. Exceptionally, a course might be offered in both semesters.
The subject matter of a course is described in various texts.
BI-SRC.21 Real-time systems Extent of teaching: 2P+2C Instructor: Kubátová H. Completion: Z,ZK Department: 18103 Credits: 5 Semester: Z Annotation:
Students obtain the basic knowledge in the real-time (RT) system theory and in the design methods for RT systems including the dependability issues. Theoretical knowledge from lectures will be experimentally verified in computer labs. The course is mainly focused on embedded RT systems, therefore the design kits in the lab are the same as in the BIE-VES course.
Lecture syllabus:
1. Real-time (RT) systems properties. 2. Classification of real time systems, "hard" and "soft" RT systems. 3. RT systems models. 4. Dependability issues, faults in digital systems, testing. 5. Process (task) scheduling. 6. Static scheduling. 7. Dynamic scheduling. 8. Priority scheduling, dependent tasks, resource access control. 9. RT operating systems. 10. RT communication. 11. Examples, fault-tolerant and attack-resistant system design. 12. Programming languages for RT applications. 13. Verification. Seminar syllabus:
6, Test 1. Presentation of task 2 implementation.
1. Demo example, PIC24F structure. 2. Dependability models and computations. 3. Task 1. Instruction and implementation on PIC24F. 4. Presentation of task 1. Task 2 instructions. 5. R-T models.
7. Task 3. Instruction and methods to solve it. 8. Realization of task 3. 9. Multitask 4. Instruction and methods to solve it. 10. Task 4 solving. 11. Presentation of task 4 implementation. 12. Final test. 13. Assessment. Literature:
