Course description

The average home contains around 200 embedded computing systems. They use them and rely on them, but what are they? The PC is a computing system, with which they interact through a keyboard, mouse and VDU. As users, they can program the PC and direct it to perform a whole range of applications. In an embedded computing system the microprocessor is integrated into the product and pre-programmed to carry out a dedicated control task.
