Course Overview
Comprehensive and practical guide of key features of Armv8-A Architecture
Comprehensive and practical guide of key features of Armv8-A architecture
Smartphones, AI System-on-Chip (SoC), Electric Vehicle Automotive system are in Armv8-A based Arm processors. Currently, in the system software industry, knowledge of the Armv8-A architecture is considered essential as it is in high demand. But for system software engineers, there is no lecture covering Armv8-A architecture so far.
This course is for software engineers and students who want to quickly learn how to develop quality software for Armv8-A architecture without reading long technical reference document. The contents of this course covers practical skills or tips which can be applied your real project once you complete this course.
Key features;
The following are the key features of this course:
Overview of the primary concepts of Armv8-A
Practical TRACE32 debugging exercises
In-depth practical case studies
Why we need to learn about Arm architecture?
There are several reasons why we need to learn about Arm architecture.
Understanding ARM architecture helps in diagnosing and resolving software issues more effectively.
It strengthens core skills needed to become better embedded systems engineer.
Arm knowledge provides a solid foundation to analyze and comprehend complex software architectures
Learning Arm architecture offers deeper insight into startup code and low-level kernel operations
Arm expertise improves reverse engineering abilities, allowing you to dissect and understand compiled software more easily
If you would like to upgrade engineering ability, this course is right for you.

Not very organized, Difficult to understand accent, Could have given more deeper knowledge. Alot of repetition is there. More efforts on slides should be done.

From an instructor with a good amount of experience, we expect more. Trace32 and details are not covered, for training beginners, all these are to be covered.
