iSAQB® EMBEDDED Dependable Embedded Systems

Advanced

This iSAQB module teaches software architecture for dependable embedded systems, focusing on safety, reliability, and security. Participants learn to manage hardware limits, real-time requirements, and resource constraints using fault tolerance patterns.

Description

This iSAQB module teaches software architecture for dependable embedded systems, focusing on safety, reliability, and security. Participants learn to manage hardware limits, real-time requirements, and resource constraints using fault tolerance patterns.

  • Dependability: Safety, security, and reliability definitions.

  • Risk Analysis: Failure identification and impact assessment.

  • Fault Management: Detection, isolation, and recovery techniques.

  • Hardware Interaction: Memory, power, and timing management.

  • Compliance: Standards such as ISO 26262 and IEC 61508.

As an elective for the iSAQB CPSA-A certification, this course uses technical instruction and practical examples to help architects meet regulatory standards for embedded products.

What You Will Learn

The iSAQB EMBEDDED module provides the technical knowledge necessary to design software architectures for embedded systems. This training focuses on systems where software interacts closely with hardware under physical and resource constraints.

The curriculum covers several key areas of embedded software architecture:

Part 1- Systems Development for Embedded Systems

Part 2- Software Development for Embedded Systems

Part 3- Dependability and Functional Safety

Part 4- Real-Time and Concurrency

Part 5- Adaptability

Certification & Exam

The EMBEDDED module is a recognized training component of the iSAQB Certified Professional for Software Architecture (CPSA) Advanced Level program. This module focus on the architecture and design of dependable embedded systems, covering aspects like safety, reliability, and real-time constraints.

Completion of this course grants participants a total of 20 credit points toward the CPSA-Advanced Level certification. These points are distributed as follows:

  • 10 Technical credit points

  • 10 Methodological credit points

To obtain the full CPSA-Advanced Level certificate, candidates must accumulate at least 70 credit points from three different competence areas: technical, methodological, and communicative. Once the required points are earned, participants can apply for the final examination. This exam consists of a written case study and an oral defense evaluated by independent iSAQB examiners.

Prerequisites for the CPSA-Advanced Level certification include holding the CPSA-Foundation Level certificate and having at least three years of professional experience in software development or software architecture.

What You Will Achieve

Participants learn to design software architectures for embedded systems that require dependability, real-time performance, and hardware integration. The course covers methodical development for regulated and technical environments.

Learning outcomes include the ability to:

  • Design architectures that account for hardware constraints and real-time scheduling.

  • Apply safety principles to meet standards such as ISO 26262 or IEC 61508.

  • Manage memory, energy, and processing power in limited environments.

  • Use error detection and fault-tolerance patterns for system dependability.

  • Structure software for adaptability and product line management.

  • Coordinate software architecture with system and hardware designs.

  • Evaluate how programming languages affect system quality characteristics.
