Embedded systems are the backbone of modern technology - from cars to medical technology. But without a well thought-out software architecture, even small projects quickly reach their limits.
In this seminar, you will learn how to develop scalable, maintainable and reliable architectures for embedded software. You will learn practical methods for avoiding typical pitfalls and systematically mastering complexity. Regardless of whether you are improving existing systems or planning new solutions - a strong architecture is the key to success.

You will learn how to systematically identify and document architecture-related requirements and use them as drivers for your architecture decisions – based on standards such as ISO 25010. By using architecture patterns, traceability strategies, and proven evaluation methods such as the Fraunhofer RATE framework, you will develop robust architectures that ensure quality, maintainability, and scalability.
The aim of the seminar is to provide you with sound, practical knowledge on the development and evaluation of software architectures in embedded systems. You will acquire the skills to methodically structure complex systems, minimize technical risks, and make sustainable architectural decisions.
Participants will be trained in the typical activities of a software architect specializing in embedded systems.
There are no specific admission requirements.
In addition to building methodological knowledge, great importance is attached to the practical application of what has been learned. Exercises and exchanges with experts and specialists consolidate the knowledge acquired.
After the seminar, participants will be able to use the approaches they have practiced in their daily work.
The seminar is a three- or four-day classroom training course – seminar content available for download [pdf]
The large number of our projects with industry partners shows that the lightweight approaches presented can also be used in existing process landscapes at companies.
We offer the seminar content as an on-site seminar at Fraunhofer IESE or as in-house training at your company. Contact us!
The seminar was designed by the experts of Fraunhofer IESE and has already been held successfully several times. The seminar participants are personally supervised by the Fraunhofer IESE team and receive direct access to the expertise from research and practice.
Dr. Pablo Oliveira Antonino is head of the Embedded Software Engineering department at the Fraunhofer Institute for Experimental Software Engineering IESE in Kaiserslautern. The department's expertise includes the design, evaluation, and simulation of architectures for reliable embedded systems. Dr. Oliveira Antonino has been working at Fraunhofer IESE since 2009. Prior to that, he worked as a software developer at various companies that develop embedded systems and information systems. He received his doctorate from the Technical University of Kaiserslautern in 2016.
»We recently participated in a multi-day training on systems and software architecture, and it was an incredibly engaging and valuable experience. Pablo's and Priom’s enthusiasm for the subject made the sessions not only informative but also genuinely enjoyable. The training gave us a solid foundation and directly influenced how we’re approaching our architectural work. As a result, we’ve developed a new roadmap to achieve our system and software architecture goals and, importantly, the training helped us select the right toolchain to support our documentation and modeling activities moving forward. Overall, the training was a great investment, and I highly recommend it to any team looking to strengthen their architectural capabilities.«
