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.

Start of classes.

All course related material, such as lecture notes, the list of topics and requirements for the Topic Study, Assignments, Project requirements, etc., will be posted in the CSE6490 course directory on red: /cs/course/6490

CSE 6490F Test 1 will be held on Thursday February 28, 2013, 17:30-19:00.

CSE 6490F Test 2 will be held on Thursday April 4, 2013, 17:30-19:00.

6490F students are encouraged to “sit-in” the 4352 labs to learn some basics about embedded microcontrollers and their software.

The 4352 lab schedule is as follows (Each lab is on a Friday, 11:30-13:00, in Lassonde 1004A)

- lab 1: Friday January 25.

- lab 2: Friday February 8.

(during reading week Feb 18-22 there is no lab)

- lab 3: Friday March 1.

(March 29 is Good Friday so no lab)

Note that there will be a lab tomorrow. You may read some of the lab material in “Lab1” in the “Labs” section of the 4352 website to prepare for the lab at: https://wiki.cse.yorku.ca/course_archive/2012-13/W/4352/labs
