   1 The original \gls{C}-backend for the \gls{mTask}-\gls{EDSL} generated a
   2 self-contained \gls{iTasks} like \gls{TOP} system for a microcontroller. The
   3 proposed backend for the \gls{mTask}-\gls{EDSL} does not result in a
   4 self-contained system but only compiles the expressions to bytecode. The device
   5 and the server communicate using the Leader/Follower principle\footnote{Also
   6 known as Master/Slave}. Only the server can initiate a connection with a device
   7 and only the server can produce and send \glspl{Task} to the device. Concepts
   8 such as \glspl{SDS} are available on the device and are the main use of
   9 communication between the client and the server.

  11 Chapter~\ref{chp:arch} elaborates on the considerations and implementation of
  12 the system.
