規劃新課程: System software for multicore platforms

我受上級長官交代，要在一年半之內研發一門新課程: System software for multicore platforms，長官希望能培育一些能夠幫多核心硬體平台(包括嵌入式系統、手機、平板、以及種種智慧型裝置) 研發系統軟體的人才，搭配國內外日益普遍的多核心硬體平台，讓國內將來有辦法設計出優質先進的多核心系統。

不知道各位先進、賢達、朋友，可否提供一些建議? 這門一學期三學分的高年級/研究所課該教些甚麼? 尤其是在業界的朋友，可否說一下你們最希望新進人員有那些關於多核心的專長? 有沒有覺得很不錯的參考資料? 有沒有覺得很好用的多核心平台?

列出一些相關的topics，一學期要教完，要有所取捨...
