Abstract

This paper describes a mine controller project used as laboratory material by undergraduate students for the "Real-Time Systems" course. This mine controller runs on a real-time operating system communicating with dedicated hardware. The complete embedded system is implemented on the AMIRIX AP100 FPGA development board.
