Welcome to the Computer Architecture for Embedded Systems (CAES) group of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science of the University of Twente in the Netherlands.
A networked embedded system is a mixture of hardware and software: it may be as simple as a sensor, or as complex as a portable device, or even an entire car or building. Such systems are increasingly based upon a wirelessly connected network of scalable and customisable System-on-Chip devices. For networked embedded systems, cooperation is a necessity, to perform their tasks with sufficient quality or efficiency, and to reach the required functionality. These systems should therefore be open, scalable and dependable, integrating heterogeneous devices ranging from tiny actuators to large computers.
Our mission is to perform research on energy-efficient dependable architectures for networked embedded systems, by combining computer architectures, systems software, networking, and tools.
Our teaching is aimed at both the undergraduate level and the graduate level of the computer science, electrical engineering and other curricula. At the undergraduate level, we teach courses on computer systems and architectures, and designing digital systems. At the graduate level, we contribute to the major Embedded Systems.
