Embedded systems can be defined as information processing  systems embedded into enclosing products such as cars,  telecommunication or fabrication equipment. Such systems come with a  large number of common characteristics, including real-time  constraints, and dependability as well as efficiency requirements.  Following the success of information technology (IT) for office and  workflow applications, embedded systems are considered to be the most  important application area of IT during the coming years. This  importance of embedded systems is so far not well reflected in many of  the current curricula.   Embedded System Design is intended as an aid for changing this  situation. It provides the material for a first course on embedded  systems, but can also be used by PhD students and professors. A key  goal of this book is to provide an overview of embedded system design  and to relate the most important topics in embedded system design to  each other. It should help to motivate students as well as professors  to put more emphasis on education in embedded systems. In order to  facilitate teaching from this book, slides, exercises and other  related material can be downloaded via the author's web page.
