This book intended for the following audience:
Computer science, computer engineering and electrical engineering students
who would like to specialize in embedded systems. The book should
be appropriate for third year students who do have a basic knowledge of
computer hardware and software. This book is intended to pave the way
for more advanced topics that should be covered in a follow-up course.

Engineers who have so far worked on systems hardware and who have to
move more towards software of embedded systems. This book should provide
enough background to understand the relevant technical publications.

Professors designing a new curriculum for embedded systems.
