This book focuses on the outcome of the European
research project “FP7-ICT-2011-8 / 317882:
Embedded Engineering Learning Platform” E2LP. Additionally, some experiences and researches outside this project have
been included. This book provides information about the achieved results of the
E2LP project as well as some broader views about the embedded engineering
education. It captures project results and applications, methodologies, and
evaluations. It leads to the history of computer architectures, brings a touch
of the future in education tools and provides a valuable resource for anyone
interested in embedded engineering education concepts, experiences and
material. The book
contents 12 original contributions and will open a broader discussion about
the necessary knowledge and appropriate
learning methods for the new profile of embedded engineers. As a result, the proposed Embedded Computer
Engineering Learning Platform will help to educate a sufficient number of
future engineers in Europe, capable of designing complex systems and
maintaining a leadership in the area of embedded systems, thereby ensuring that
our strongholds in automotive, avionics, industrial automation, mobile
communications, telecoms and medical systems are able to develop.
