Debugging embedded designs is becoming increasingly difficult as the number of observed and possible interactions between hardware and software continue to grow, and as more features are crammed into ...

Tools for debugging embedded systems range from software monitors and simulators, which are independent of the hardware under development, to custom silicon for in-circuit emulation, which replaces ...

The appeal of embedded systems is clear. A high degree of configurability, readily available commercial intellectual property (IP), and the use of well-understood and accepted protocols and bus ...

You can use Linux and still employ a methodology that includes all of the different phases of the ever-critical debugging process. A growing number of embedded developers are experimenting with the ...

The complexity associated with the development of embedded systems is increasing rapidly. For instance, it is estimated that the average complexity of software projects in the automotive industry has ...

Imagine a world without a global notion of time. Now try to find out the flight direction of an airplane with the following information: There's an e-mail from Alice that she saw the plane about two ...

Developers of embedded software face unique challenges, including running systems reliably for extended periods, with limited memory and processing power. To build cost-effective systems, embedded ...

With each turn of Moore's Law, designers at every phase in the development process are challenged with new levels of complexity. Chip designers must not only get the integrated circuit (IC) logic, ...

Battery life has become theAchilles heel for the success of mobile software platforms, such as Android.The mileage users can get from their battery is severely impacted by software.Software implicitly ...
