+====== Course overview and Outcomes ======
+Unlike a general-purpose computer, such as a personal computer, an embedded system is a special-purpose system in which the computer is completely encapsulated by the device it controls. The embedded system design consists of hardware, software, analog microelectronics, sensors and actuators which are combined for a specific application ranging from communications, to transportation, avionic and to medical instrumentation. Students will gain in-depth technical competence in the various areas including the design of hardware/software for embedded systems, the design of analog interfacing system along with the selection of appropriate sensors and actuators.

+====== Prerequisites ======
-====== Overview ======
+Students should have a good understanding of digital and analog electronics and computer organization. You should also be familiar with assembly programming (C programming will be helpful).
-Embedded systems are an important area of computer engineering and a large and growing market for computing technology. The trends to mobile computing, ubiquitous computing, and pervasive computing combined with ever increasing computational power and powerful new paradigms in hardware design are changing embedded systems design. In this course we consider the design of embedded hardware and software under pressures and constraints including performance, cost, size, time to market, power, ...
-====== Prerequisites ======
-The departmental prerequisites for this course are general pre-requisites and CSE3201.04 (i.e. the latest version of the course, taught using Verilog and with a hardware lab component). Students should have a good understanding of digital and analogue electronics and computer organisation. You should also be familiar with assembly programming (C programming will be very helpful).
