EECS 753 Embedded and Real Time Systems

• Welcome !– New Class, So Some Inherent Disorganization

• Programmatics– Two Exams 12.5% per exam =25%

– Two Team Projects 20% per project =40%

– Homework 35% =35%

• Academic Honesty– Taken Seriously. Group Work Is Good, However Members

Must Pull Weight
