Official course description from TUM (note that the course has been renamed)
Instructor: Chih-Hong Cheng
Lecture time & location: Tue & Wed 8:00-9:30, TUM Heilbronn Campus (Tue: Forum; Wed: D.2.01)
Exercise/Lab/Discussion time & location: Tue 9:45-11:15, TUM Heilbronn Campus (Forum)
Grading: max{40% final_exam + 40% hands-on projects + 20% top 3 score assignments, 60% final_exam + 40% hands-on projects}, with additional bonus 10% on presenting EMSOFT'22 or 23 papers well
The score will be calculated using the basis of 100 points, then converted to the German system based on a scale defined in the first class (e.g., [90,100]: 1.0). See logistics for details.
Homework plagiarism is prohibited.
I don’t object to study group discussions (I already mentioned this in the class), but the text/result should be created by you. E.g., you draw the Simulink / Ptolemy II design diagram. You write down the solution in your own words.
From HW2 onwards, any homework plagiarism will be notified to the university for further processing.
