Every good hardware or software design starts with a structured approach throughout the design cycle, but as chip architectures and applications begin focusing on specific domains and include some ...

Embedded software, once a challenge to write, update, and optimize, is following the route of other types of software. It is abstracted, simpler to use, and much faster to write. But in some cases, it ...

The last two articles have explored the five steps to designing an embedded software architecture. So far, we have seen a need in modern embedded systems to separate software architecture into ...

The right blend of tools, technologies, and strategies can help developers harness the power of CD, enabling higher quality and more robust embedded systems. The convergence of software and hardware ...

At CES 2024, a French startup is presenting the notion of frugal code in embedded software by identifying and quantifying the optimization potential of the code. WedoLow, a spinoff from three research ...

As system complexities rise and management and market pressures drive tight schedules, engineers find that meeting schedules and budgets are constantly top concerns. The innate, driving, subconscious ...

Every communication protocol should have a mechanism to determine whether the received data is valid. I once encountered a team that didn’t have such a mechanism. Their device operated in a ...

Embedded designers and programmers tend to be a conservative lot who love to delve into the latest technology but adopt it after careful consideration. One of those technologies is vibe coding, which ...

Prepare for Safety-Critical Embedded Systems at MTU. When software lives inside machines, failure isn’t an inconvenience—it’s a safety, reliability, and security risk. From vehicles and aircraft to ...
