CEEE course
"Developing Real-Time, Embedded Products"
Kim Fowler
Distinguished Speaker, IEEE
6 and 13 Jan 2007
Historical Electronics Museum, Linthicum, MD
8:45AM - 1:00PM
THIS COURSE IS
ELIGIBLE FOR
CEU-CREDITS
Register by 22 Dec 2006 via email to bgramat-at-jhmi.edu
Description: The course surveys many
different
concerns that an engineer or designer needs to consider when developing
a new
product - hardware circuits, software processes, power, cooling, human
interfaces, testing, integration, delivery, and support after product
launch.
It presents many different tradeoffs, such as buy versus build,
architectures
that suit specific applications, and types of markets.
Instructor: Kim Fowler has spent 25 years
in
designing and developing medical, military, and satellite equipment. He
authored, Electronic Instrument Design: Architecting for the Life
Cycle,
published by Oxford University Press and is currently working on three
other
books. He is Editor-In-Chief of the IEEE Instrumentation &
Measurement
magazine, writes the Tried and True column, and is an IEEE
Distinguished
Lecturer. He co-founded Stimsoft, a medical products company, which he
sold in
2003 and now consults in product development. He has published widely
in
engineering journals and has several patents.
Each hour counts as 0.1 CEU (CEU = Continuing Education
Units).
Also, 0.1 CEU = 1 PDH (Professional Development Hour).
The CEU
is a currency that measures a person's participation in a formal,
non-credit
continuing education program, such as a workshop, seminar, tutorial, or
self-study course. IEEE is an Authorized CEU Provider through the
International
Association for Continuing Education and Training (IACET). As defined
by IACET,
one CEU is equal to ten contact hours of instruction in a continuing
education
activity. Any activity less than one hour in duration is not eligible
for CEUs.
Currently, thirty states require Professional Development Hours to
maintain
P.E. licensure, encouraging engineers to seek CEUs for their
participation in
Continuing Education programs. Evidence of participation in these
courses also
helps engineers meet company training requirements.
Potential applicants to the course and CEUs need to register before Dec 22, 2007 by sending an email to me: bgramat-at-jhmi.edu
Thanks,
Boris Boris Gramatikov,
