Novo curso: Designing Embedded Systems Using MicroPython

Caro(a) Colega,

a partir do dia 10 inicia-se um curso com 5 dias de duração, sobre projetos de sistemas embarcados utilizando MicroPython, oferecido pelo CEC – Continuing Education Center numa parceria entre o IEEE, o site de conteúdo Design News e patrocinado pela Digikey. Confira a resenha:

Designing Embedded Systems Using MicroPython 

The C/C++ programming languages have long dominated the embedded systems industry, with very few other languages being able to find a foothold. The winds of change are upon us, however, and MicroPython may be the programming language you use to build your next product. Python’s shallow learning curve and the fact that even elementary-school students are learning how to use it is positioning it to be a dominant language in the next half-century. In this course, we will examine how to use MicroPython to develop products and point out the little “gotchas” and learning points that can often be stumbling blocks to developers. Attendees will walk away from this course with a detailed understanding of what they need to do in order to use MicroPython in their next product.

• June 10 – Day 1 – Designing Products with MicroPython

MicroPython offers developers an interesting and unique strategy to rapidly accelerate product development by leveraging existing libraries and hardware modules to develop a product. In this session, we will examine what tools are available to developers and help them to understand the ecosystem surrounding MicroPython, which includes development boards, modules and software.

.

• June 11 – Day 2 – Getting Started with the Pyboard D-Series

A critical component to accelerate development in any embedded system is to leverage existing modules and libraries to accelerate design. The PyBoard D-Series development board can be leveraged by designers, not just to prototype their systems, but to also be used in production systems. In this session, we will fire up the Pyboard D-Series module and look at how we can interface to it to write our first MicroPython scripts. Attendees will walk away with a better understanding of how to use the available software libraries.

.

• June 12 – Day 3 – Customizing the MicroPython Kernel for Production

A production-intent system may require that developers make modifications to the MicroPython kernel and recompile it themselves. Developers may want to do this to protect their own IP modules, to improve the robustness of the kernel, or to customize the start-up sequence. In this session, we will examine how developers can do just that.

.

• June 13 – Day 4 – Developing Real-time Application Projects

The Python language provides developers with many libraries and language features. Still, not all features will necessarily work on an embedded target as one might expect. In this session, we will look at how we can develop real-time applications using simple schedulers and the built-in Python threads class. Attendees will walk away with an understanding of real-time Python and how it works in a resource-constrained environment.

.

• June 14 – Day 5 – Testing MicroPython Projects

Testing is an important piece of production system development. There are many ways that developers can test their MicroPython code and one interesting way is to create a test harness. In this session, we will explore different test-harness schemes and show how they can be used during development to ensure that the MicroPython code is working as expected. We will also discuss robust coding techniques in Python before reviewing the week’s course and discussing how developers can go further with MicroPython.

Novo curso: Connectivity Solutions for the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)

Caro(a) Colega,

a partir do dia 20 inicia-se um curso com 5 dias de duração, sobre soluções de conectividade para a internet industrial das coisas, oferecido pelo CEC – Continuing Education Center numa parceria entre o IEEE, o site de conteúdo Design News e patrocinado pela Digikey. Confira a resenha:

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) consists of components and systems that connect industrial equipment together and potentially link them to external systems.  These are distributed systems that may span a great area inside an individual facility and may even connect to other facilities.  In some cases, external systems are added to the mix to facilitate control and analysis of data.  In this course, we will look at the communication components,  and discuss how they are interconnected and architected. 

• • May 20 – Day 1 – IIoT Landscape – In this lecture we shall introduce the IIoT and how it is used. An understanding of the basic components in play will be given with an eye toward understanding how they may need to communicate and what those requirements might be
  • May 21 – Day 2 – Wired Options – Interconnection between industrial components has long been accomplished using various wired technology solutions. Many of these are still in use and valuable today. In this lecture we will give an overview of those options, including their capabilities and applicability.
  • May 22 – Day 3 – Wireless Options – As wireless technology has improved, the ability to use it in an industrial setting has presented itself. In addition, wireless technologies can be easier to install and maintain. We will look at the technologies in use and how they are adapted in industrial situations. 
  • May 23 – Day 4 – Architectures for Individual Plants – The traditional and main use for the IIoT was to connect devices within a single industrial plant or facility. As many of the facilities contain interconnected devices in large physical areas, it is important to plan the layout and architecture of the communications. These architectures must be  flexible and amenable to growth and reconfiguration.  In this class we will look at the ways in which that may be done. 
  • May 24 – Day 5 – Distributed Operations and External Connections – Many operations in modern industrial enterprises have multiple facilities, including warehousing and distribution sites.  These will have many devices internally and will need to work together.  This can be done by direct connection, or by integration with centralized computing resources, often including cloud computing and storage.  The centralized systems will perform operations such as Manufacturing Resource Planning (MRP) and analytics.  Data transmitted between plants and central facilities can present many challenges.  In this lecture we will discuss how these are met and how to implement them.
