COVID-19 Prevention Systems within Hardware and Software Design Computer Science Courses

This paper proposes pandemic support system design exercises from both hardware and software perspective as constituent part of higher education computer science courses. Two case studies in context of computer science and automation study programmes at University of Niš, Faculty of Electronic Engineering in Serbia ae covered: Intelligent Information Systems and Microcontroller Programming. In case of the first one, the topics cover information system implementation relying on Java Enterprise Edition (JEE) technology with presence of machine learning elements provided by Weka API, so smart vaccination process support information system is presented as example. On the other side, the focus on the second course is on PIC16 family microcontrollers and RTOS-based system implementation using CCS C compiler and presented example represents control unit for indoor coronavirus safety control.
