Dear students,

The midterm deadline is approaching and you have until tomorrow evening to complete the midterm (21.06.2023 at 23:59). Passing the midterm assignment is a precondition to write the exam. In order to take part in the exam you will also need to register in LSF (with the exception of Erasmus and guest students and students from a few study programs - e.g. Business Informatics, Bachelor-Plus MINT, Lehramt Informatik). Your registration status (registered or not) can be changed until one week before the exam date.

After that point (exam date minus one week), you will not be able to change your registration status. At that point, if you are registered you will use one of your attempts to write the exam (regardless of whether you actually write it or not). Consistently, if you are not registered in LSF at that point, you will not be able to write the exam. In case of problems with the exam registration, if you are a student with faculty MI, you should contact <studium@cs.uni-saarland.de> and otherwise you have to contact the examination office of your own faculty.

We will try to be as quick as possible in correcting the midterm assignment after the deadline.

This is just a reminder that the midterm assignment is going to be released on 15.06.2023 at 00:01. The deadline to submit the solution is 21.06.2023 at 23:59. The submission is managed using CMS and you will be able to re-upload your solution any time before the deadline. Note that obtaining a pass grade in the midterm assignment (meaning: collecting at least 12 points out of 20+5 points) is a necessary condition to write the exam. Feel free to contact me for any question.

The submission is individual and plagiarism will not be tolerated. As specified during the first lecture, you can use any prompt (including ChatGPT) but you need to document the process of generating answers to the questions. Furthermore, you need to attach the code that you used to generate the answers that you provide in the two PDFs.

Best regards,
-- Martina

Thank you for attending the first lecture of the Embedded Systems core course. The lecture slides are online in the materials page, but there was unfortunately a problem with the recording. Hence, there will be no uploaded recording for the lecture. If you have any question about the logistics of the course, feel free to contact me via email.
