Abstract :
This paper reports a problem-based learning - PBL approach for the development of real time embedded software for the aerospace sector, employing a commercial suite of tools that supports model-driven architecture - MDA projects. Using this approach, graduate and last-year undergraduate students in computer engineering of the Brazilian Aeronautical Institute of Technology (LTA) have developed an aerospace system prototype during an academic semester.
