In this intensive course/workshop\, we explain the mai n topics in integrating multiple sensors in larger systems and demonstrate them in the lab\, on a board with tri-axial inertial MEMS sensors and oth er devices. \n\nInstructor:\n\nDr. Zeljko Zilic is an associate professor at 91Ë¿¹ÏÊÓÆµ. He has obtained his Ph. D. degree from University of Toronto in 1997. He worked at Lucent Technologies in 1997-98. He has taug ht courses on microprocessor and embedded systems since joining 91Ë¿¹ÏÊÓÆµ in 1998 and in that period he has designed novel laboratory kits and courses that extend the focus to wireless embedded systems and multi-sensor integr ation. For his teaching efforts\, he has received the Wighton Fellowship b y the National Council of Deans of Engineering and Applied Sciences of Can ada.  He has written a dozen of papers on embedded systems education\, inc luding embedded wireless and multi-sensor training. He is also a prolific researcher\, with over 200 research papers in the related areas\, for whic h he has received several research awards. Dr. Zilic has also co-written t hree books that have served both as research monographs and course textboo ks in graduate courses. In the research community\, Dr. Zilic has served a s a general and program chair of IEEE High-level Design Validation and tes t and has chaired several other conferences in matters of finance\, tutori als\, panels and special sessions.   \n\nWorkshop Content:\n\nStudents are expected to take the self-preparation assessment quiz and complete the ne cessary pre-readings before the workshop.\n\nEmbedded microprocessor-based systems basics\n o Embedded systems and processor architecture\n o Design p rinciples\n Modern embedded processors suitable for sensor integration\n o D esign tools and debug support significance\n o ARM Cortex M3 and M4 process or case studies\n o Low-power design concerns\n o Lab/Demo: Tools for embedd ed ARM design\n Interfacing sensors  from software\n o Lab 1: Program design and debugging tools\n Basics of sensor integration\n o Dealing with manufac turing imprecision and correcting capabilities\n o Compensating temperature and environmental impact\n o Noise in measurements and its reduction\n Freq uency-domain technique basics\n \n Interfacing sensors with digital bus inte rfaces\n o Buses for interfacing sensors: I2C\, SPI\, …\n o Lab 2: analog se nsor sampling\, signal conditioning and processing\n Sensor data filtering and signal processing\n o Digital and software filters\n Interrupt-driven in terfacing\n o Asynchrony in sensor data processing – interrupt-driven proce ssing\n o Lab 3: Reading and processing of accelerometer data\; interrupts \n System-level interfacing of multiple sensors at different rates\n o OS Se rvices\n o OS Abstraction layer and multithreaded processing\n o Lab 4: Sens or data processing in independent threads\nLocation\n\n8/Dec/2015: Morning : #2120 Trottier\; Afternoon: #4160 Trottier Building\n\n9/Dec/2015: Morni ng: FDA #5\; Afternoon #4160 Trottier Building\n\nRegistration Details:\n \nRegistration closing date: Dec 4\, 2015.  To register\, click here.\n\nW hile priority will be given to ISS students who must take the workshop thi s year according to their plans\, other spaces will be given first come fi rst served.\n\nExtra students may be added to the waitlist\, and will be i nformed of an available space by email\, by Dec 4\, 2015 at the latest.   To confirm their space\, waitlisted students must follow the instructions provided.\n\nPLEASE NOTE: Cancellations requests must be made by 5:00 p.m. \, Dec 4\, 2015 for reimbursement (unless a medical note is provided).
