Embedded Systems Australia recently held their embedded systems road mapping workshop. This workshop was to determine where the ESA needs to put it's energy so that Australia becomes a world leader in embedded systems technology. There were representatives from all facets of embedded systems including mining, medical and environmental.
Over the last few months Automated Test Systems, in association with Nicta's education outreach program and ESA education committee, has been negioating to produce a embedded programming course in conjunction with the National Computer Science School. Well It now looks like it's definitely going to happen. Approval has been given by the the NCSS and now the hard work begins.
