CEC Semester Eleven 2017

In this leadoff class, we will present an overview of the Micrium μC/OS II/III kernel-based RTOS. We will look at the basic structure and how an RTOS works in foreground / background operations and the basic principles and operation in an RTOS. We...

For our second class, we will outline the details of the maker program and how to participate. We will look at the requirements that we must meet to qualify for the program and what the differences are with the standard commercial license. We will...

For our third class, we will begin to delve into the elements of μC/OS III, beginning with the concept of kernel-based applications then how we install and set up the system to build our first μC/OS III application on our K64 target board.

In this penultimate class, we will look at the challenges of overall network security. We will cover everything from secure communications protocols to secure commissioning and decommissioning of nodes.

In this penultimate class, we will write the tasks for our application. We will examine how we will set up priorities and the events that will drive our application. We will also determine what communication we need between tasks for...

Now that we have learned the basic challenges of securing the IoT, we will look at the other issues that we may face, including the #1 security weakness in essentially every IoT implementation. We will look at some of the tools and test methods...

Now that we have built and tested our basic tasks, we will look at how we can add synchronization primitives, mutual exclusion, and inter-task communication to assure that our tasks work together properly without interference and properly share...
