Collaborative Research - NEXOS: Next Generation Embedded Operating Systems Course and an Innovative Support Environment

The major goal of this Phase I project is to innovate and invigorate traditional embedded systems courses by creatively infusing modern concepts. Embedded systems have evolved significantly from simple microprocessors controlling analog I/O devices to complex systems embedding entire operating systems. Embedded operating systems are used in diverse applications ranging from automotive dash boards to medical diagnostics, and from sensor motes and smart appliances to deep space probes. Undergraduate courses are looking to use embedded systems such as robots and multimedia devices, digital signal processors and aerospace systems for curricular innovation.  Our objective is to build an all-inclusive package of learning materials, from curriculum to lab environment, based on University at Buffalo’s embedded systems course and Marquette University’s experimental embedded operating systems laboratory. This is a collaborative effort between Dr. Bina Ramamurthy of University at Buffalo, NY and Dr. Dennis Brylow of Marquette University, WI.
