Not homework as such, just exam preparation.
I have a practice question asking for a block diagram of an embedded microprocessor system which is used to monitor and control the safety of a plant. The plant setup is composed of various sensors monitoring pressure, temperature and level, and has various actuators for starting pumps, opening and closing valves.
I expect what they are looking for is a modified version of the harvard architecture of a PIC. I would probably have it interrupt driven with a hierarchy of the primary sensors. Any thoughts?
