Category	Scientific-professional
Scientific or art field	Automatic Control and System Engineering
ECTS	8

Mastering theoretical and practical principles of real-time control systems. Enabling students to be able by themselves to design and implement software solutions for particular group of real time systems, and furthermore to be able to design and realize software designed instruments.

The students will learn the basics of design and implementation of real-time control systems. Using the obtained knowledge, the students will be able to access the relative difficulty of practical control problems, to access resources needed for the implementation, to design control algorithm, to find critical points and implement the design solution. The students will also be able to test and verify the obtained design. Likewise, by completion of course students are supposed to be able on their own to design and implement particular software designed instruments.

Basics of real-time control. Basics of digital control systems. Hardware architecture of real-time systems. Real-time operating systems. Programming languages for real-time systems. Real-time control algorithms. Implementation of digital regulators. Parameter estimation. Real-time simulation (HIL, Hardware in the Loop simulation). Application of optimization methods in real-time control. Communication between different hardware real-time platforms. Communication protocols. State machines. Design patterns in real-time control systems programming. Data encapsulation in real-time control systems.

Lectures. Computational assignments. Laboratory assignments. Consultations. The final mark is obtained on the basis of theoretical tests (2 tests in total), the laboratory assignments and project implementation.
