On Sunday 4th October a total of 15 participants including the presenters (and one of the reviewers of PROXIMA, Peter Marwedel, who registered as attendee) enjoyed the PROXIMA tutorial as part of Embedded Systems Week. This was the most well attended of the morning tutorials. The tutorial introduced attendees to the foundations and practices of MBPTA and to its relation with the state of the art, with emphasis on what its application exacts from the end user and what it requires from the execution platform.
