This textbook offers a comprehensive introduction to the methodological and technical knowledge necessary for the development of embedded systems. At first, the foundations of embedded systems from the fields of electronics, systems theory and control theory are introduced for computer scientists and engineers without extensive knowledge of electrical engineering. Subsequently, system components as well as digital communication between embedded system nodes are discussed. The book ends with procedures for the analysis of embedded systems and for real-time processing. It is aimed at students and users of computer science as well as engineers, physicists and mathematicians who are interested in the basics of developing embedded systems.

Technical Foundations of Embedded Systems: Electronics, System theory, Components and Analysis (Lecture Notes in Electrical Engineering)

The economic potential of autonomous mobile robots will increase tremendously during the next years. Service robots such as cleaning machines and inspection or assistance robots will bring us great support in our daily lives. This textbook provides an introduction to the methods of controlling these robotic systems. Starting from mobile robot kinematics, the reader receives a systematic overview of the basic problems as well as methods and algorithms used for solving them. Localisation, object recognition, map building, navigation and control architectures for autonomous vehicles will be discussed in detail. In conclusion, a survey of specific service robot applications is included as well. This book is a very useful introduction to mobile robotics for beginners as well as advanced students and engineers.

Ein Lehrbuch, das die Brücke zwischen der Mechatronik und der Entwicklung eingebetteter Software schlägt. Zunächst werden die Grundlagen eingebetteter Systeme, die die Gebiete Systemtheorie, Steuerung und Regelung sowie Sensorik und Aktuatorik umfassen, für Informatiker verständlich umrissen. Im zweiten Teil werden darauf aufbauend moderne Entwicklungsmethoden für eingebettete Software erläutert. Informatiker erhalten hierbei die notwendigen Grundlagen, die sie für die Entwicklung ihrer eingebetteten Software benötigen. Elektrotechniker, Maschinenbauer und Mechatroniker profitieren von den modernen Softwareentwicklungsmethoden für eingebettete Systeme, die sie sonst nur verstreut in verschiedener Spezialliteratur finden würden.
