Learning outcomes
This class aims at providing a scientific approach to the design, implementation and verification of applications based on networked embedded systems, e.g., for building automation, factory automation, healthcare, automotive, environmental control. The class will describe the main communication protocols, design/simulation/verification methodologies as well as the design of networked control systems. The contents will be taken from state-of-the-art papers and research activities directly performed by the University of Verona.

Examination Methods
The examination consists of:
1) written test with questions about the theory and practice part of the class
2) project
- Bibliographic research (max 2 points, no groups)
- Experimental activity (max 3 points, max 2 people)
For the project, synergies are possibles with other classes, stage and thesis.
The final result (over 30 points) is computed by summing the result of both the written test and the project.
