Abstract :
We teach a hardware and software codesign course to second-year students who have expressed an interest in either electronics or informatics (computer science). The course emphasizes concepts and methods that are useful to both hardware and software developers and in particular to developers of embedded systems who must consider both disciplines as well as their interaction. We consider the course to be part of a search for better development methods and hope to increase the number of professional developers.
