We've seen in the previous articles how Ada can be used to describe high-level semantics and architecture. The beauty of the language, however, is that it can be used all the way down to the lowest ...

Editor's Note: Embedded Systems Architecture, 2nd Edition, is a practical and technical guide to understanding the components that make up an embedded system’s architecture. Offering detailed ...

Analytics-driven embedded systems bring analytics to embedded applications, moving many of the functions found in cloud-based, big-data analytics to the source of data. This allows for more efficient ...

In the world of embedded systems, the language debate is alive and well. For years, C has dominated this space, its minimalistic design and low-level control giving embedded engineers the tools to ...

One of the most revolutionary applications of electrical and computer engineering technology is when it is coupled with a physical system, forming a closed loop with sensors, computing elements and ...

There has always been a fierce war being waged between C/C++ for the hearts of embedded software developers. The war has lasted decades, with C++ slowly but surely whittling down the number of ...

Embedded systems power the modern world—quietly running inside vehicles, medical devices, industrial controllers, routers, ...

Because the operating system controls the resources (e.g., memory, CPU) of the embedded system, it has the power to prevent unauthorized use of these resources. Conversely, if the operating system ...
