 ====== Course Announcements ======
+===== December 21, 2012 =====
+Please note that, although currently the CSE Department website
+lists the catalogue number for
+ CSE6490F "Issues in Special Topics in Software Systems II-
+Issues in Embedded System Design" as "Pending";
+and the York University course enrolment
+website only lists CSE6390B "Scheduling in hard real-time systems",
+as an 6xxx level graduate level course that I am teaching in January 2013,
+that should be corrected soon.
+In the meanwhile graduate students wishing to enrol in
+CSE6490F "Issues in Special Topics in Software Systems II-
+Issues in Embedded System Design" Winter 2013,
+can first enrol in CSE6390B "Scheduling in
+hard real-time systems", and that will be automatically changed
+to CSE6490F "Issues in Special Topics in Software Systems II-
+Issues in Embedded System Design" soon.
