1. Notes
Notes are not a substitute for understanding!
The lecture notes are provided only as a reference and reminder of what was taught in class. Memorizing the notes will not serve the student, as the focus of the course is on the understanding of real-time systems. By the end of the course, the student is expected to be able to design and develop simple real-time systems independently.

8. Interaction
Ask questions as we go along; there is no such thing as a stupid questionAsk questions on forum, do not email course material related questionsYou may email me for personal mattersFeedback via email or IVLE anonymous form throughout the course; don't wait until the end
9. Reference books
The following reference books provide good material for further study. For the purposes of the course, these books are useful references but not essential. If you are keen on furthering your interest in real-time systems, I would recommend you to own copies of one or more of these books:
[Burns 2009]A. Burns & A. Wellings, “Real-time Systems and Programming Languages,” 4th ed., Addison Wesley Longmain, ISBN: 9780321417459, 2009.[Laplante 1997]P. Laplante, "Real-time systems design and analysis - An Engineer's Handbook," 2nd Edition, NJ: IEEE Press, ISBN: 0-7803-3400-0, 1997.[Bic & Shaw 2002]L. F. Bic & A. C.
