Formal Representations

While requirements engineering has received considerable attention inacademia over the past years, formalization of requirements for physicallyinfluenced systems is still a difficult task in practice. In this paper, we giveformal representations of some typical requirement classes arising in theautomotive industry. We divide these patterns into three main classes:those mostly referring to properties of continuous signals, those mostlyreferring to discrete events and those referring to similarity to a referencesignal. We discuss these patterns on concrete examples from automotiveembedded systems, where specifications are used for test case generation.

The Impact

In this paper, the subject of embedded systems education in the Arduino age is examined. Arduino is an open-source microcontroller platform that has been widely popular in the past decade among hobbyists and academics. Arduino is increasingly being adopted in courses that span different disciplines in schools and universities. As a result, numerous papers are being published every year in different engineering education conferences and journals reporting the integration of Arduino in teaching. In this work, the impact of Arduino on embedded systems education is investigated. First, challenges facing embedded systems education are identified from the literature. Second, different Arduino teaching integration methodologies reported in the literature are surveyed and analyzed. Third, the question whether Arduino successfully addresses embedded education challenges or not is discussed taking both surveyed findings and recent market trends into consideration. Finally, a number of open-ended research directions are proposed.
