Knowledge circles
The Embedded Systems Institute deploys so-called knowledge circles with the objectives of synthesizing, creating and disseminating knowledge; knowledge on a slice of the embedded systems design pie.
The knowledge carriers are actual, real-life, cases, brought in by the participants and often related to one or more related ESI projects.
As ESI projects aim at covering specific slices of the system design pie, fruitful interactive discussions take place in which not only knowledge is shared but also augmented and enriched with new knowledge, thus providing a channel for dissemination.
The participants of the circles are recognized experts in the field who are communicative, willing to share and discuss in a positive and constructive way. These experts are selected by the ESI on the before mentioned criteria.
Knowledge circles are closed by necessity in order to create an atmosphere of trust and willingness to share.
Currently the following knowledge circles are active:
- Reliability
- Requirements
- Re-use
- System Architecture
- Test & Integration
