This module introduces students to key principles of scientific programming. Successful students understand the importance of programming in environmental sciences. They are familiar with the fundamental principles and different programming paradigms. They show proficiency in identifying and formulating problems to be solved by own software. They are able to solve simple data conversion, analysis and modeling problems. They know about basic principles of digital data processing. They show basic proficiency how hardware and software are related.

The “Real-Time Embedded Systems” module covers (a) embedded systems and (b) real-time software design principles for such embedded systems. In this project-oriented, highly practical course, we will develop our own microcontroller-based embedded devices that interact with the environment using Internet of Things (IoT) technologies. We will study the key technical principles of common systems-on-chip (SoCs, also known as microcontrollers, MCs), including the connection of analog and digital sensors and actuators. We will focus on fundamental design principles of embedded software such as embedded real-time operating systems (RTOS), state machines, task concurrency, and interrupt handling.

This do-it-yourself (DIY) approach, with a working device as the project deliverable, is highly motivating and provides deep insights into the principles of software design. Embedded systems are ideal for learning the fundamentals because their limited resources require careful design. They cannot be overloaded with useless or superfluous software components. Because everything has to be so clean on embedded devices, the fundamentals become clear. Embedded software developers must be knowledgeable, highly precise, and to the point.

The insights gained in this course also shape the students' high-level programming skills.
