Course context for academic year 2017-18
The main features of the software used in industry are fault tolerance and ability to manage processes in real time. Fault tolerance allows a system remains in operation even though some of its components fail. Real-time systems ensure an adequate response in a given time. These two features ensure the stability and controllability of industrial processes managed by computer systems. One of the main architectures capable of integrating these two features are the microcontrollers.
In this issue we present the main architecture of industrial computer systems, highlighting the architecture based on microcontrollers: an insight in programming microcontrollers for development and implementation of real-time and fault-tolerant industrial systems.
