Software in the loop — A window lifter model to guide students through the software development process

With software in the loop, a graphical user interface, and a free programmable window lifter model this project provides techniques to improve teaching the software development process. Students can write their own program everywhere and any time with the aid of a virtual model and a graphical user interface. During the lecture “Design of Software-Intensive Systems” at Fulda University of Applied Sciences they can run the same software on the physical model without any modifications.
