 ===== Description  =====
-Almost every electronic appliance and device today uses embedded systems. Cell phones, automobiles, toasters, televisions, airplanes, medical equipment, and a host of other devices, products, and applications use embedded systems. This course focuses on the architectures, techniques, and methodologies that are used in the design and implementation of embedded systems to meet the various requirements of embedded systems.
+Almost every electronic appliance and device today uses embedded systems. Cell phones, automobiles, toasters, televisions, airplanes, medical equipment, and a host of other devices, products, and applications use embedded systems. These systems require a conscious effort to produce the most reliable product possible requiring the utmost diligence in system design and implementation. This course focuses on the architectures, techniques, and methodologies that are used in the design and implementation of embedded systems to meet the various requirements of embedded systems.
+As an example of specific material that will covered in detail: various highly efficient and practical software architectures which are widely used in the embedded system industry for embedded systems that do not require all the features and avoid the restrictions/overhead/cost of a traditional RTOS, as well as operating systems that are specially adapted to satisfy the various requirements of embedded applications.
