TOP REVIEWS FROM INTRODUCTION TO EMBEDDED SYSTEMS SOFTWARE AND DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENTS
The instructor is good, explains clearly and simply and looks friendly.
The subtitles in Lecture 4 from lesson 1 is not correct at all.
So far so good.
Thanks Coursera !
Great Course by Professor Alex. You will definitely learn the basics of Embedded Systems through this course. His explanations are crystal clear. Worth the time.
Excellent course. Refreshed all my concepts of Embedded System programming after a long time. Very good introductory course for Campus freshmen who needs to start working on System SW Development.
I have done a few computer science courses already and some of them were related to embedded systems. This is one of the best so far.
Higher level than a introductory course.
Highly advisable.
