Abstract

This paper presents a set of integrated commercial tools (both software and hardware), for use in courses on real- time systems and software engineering. A background for adopting such a set of tools is given and team projects, in which these tools have been used, are also outlined.

Work supported by DARPA, Contract No. MDA972-92-J-1023; performed while the author was with Southwest Texas State University, San Marcos, Texas.
