Abstract

Real-Time Software-Intensive Control systems (RSIC) are often
safety-critical, and their dependability is vital to successful operation of the
systems. With an abundance of applications interfacing with and controlling the
environment, there is increasing importance and demand for efficient development
of high quality RSIC systems. The main objective of the proposed project is to
establish a platform for a sustained and consistent mobility exchange of graduate
students engaged in RSIC oriented programs. These programs need to produce
graduates capable of working efficiently in multidisciplinary teams engaged in
international collaboration on industrial RSIC projects, which require
conformance to specific standards mandated by regulatory authorities. This
four-year Excellence in Mobility (EIM) project is proposed by a consortium of
three American and three European university partners. The project proposes
mobility exchange of students pursuing graduate (Master level) engineering
degrees in the areas supported by the consortium partners. The plan is to
implement a mechanism for involving students from multilingual, geographically
separated institutions in a coordinated educational and research experience
exposing them to the problems, methods, solution techniques, infrastructure,
technologies, regulatory issues, and design/verification tools usually not
available in their home program. Four of the six consortium partners are
currently participating in successful two-year Policy Oriented Measures project:
ILERT - International Learning Environment for Real-Time Software Intensive
Control Systems funded in 2006 in the framework of the EU-US cooperation Atlantis
program. The preliminary analysis of the consortium partners' programs based on
the ILERT findings, allowed partners to recognize specific areas of focus
and to identify the preliminary list of courses that the overseas students
could take while spending a mobility term abroad.
