About

About the course

Course content

Design methodology and system models, models for behaviour, finite state machines (FSM) and concurrency, models of time, process models, synchronous model assumption, models for communication, event based models, model domain interfaces, process networks, non-determinism and probability.

Learning outcome

Studying and understanding the theoretical models which are the logical and computational basis for descriptions of systems on chip (SoC) and embedded systems. The models are also studied in terms of relevant applications within areas such as specification, simulation, verification, and synthesis. The objective is to enable the students in analysing and developing models for system level descriptions and the necessary abstractions and principles therein.
