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 ...

Creating embedded software can be a challenging endeavor. The experience can range from a well-defined and controlled process to shoot-from-the-hip Wild West-style development. No matter where ones ...

When I first started to develop embedded software more than 15 years ago, embedded software engineers had a very specific skillset. They were often electrical engineers who not only understood how the ...

What are the main issues behind the “painful” process of embedded-systems design? Shortages of resources, components, and talent plague the design process. How the instability of toolsets and driver ...

The following Market Perspective outlines the Virtual Socket Interface Alliance (VSIA) position on embedded software reuse for systems-on-chip (SoCs). It provides an analysis of the design ...

Embedded software designs such as those for avionics and automotive systems have become highly complex to develop, test and certify. As a result, the traditional document driven environments, without ...

Most embedded architects think of AI as a coding shortcut. But the real power isn’t in cranking out boilerplate code, it’s in transforming how we design systems. Imagine capturing key decisions in ...

The battery management system (BMS) monitors, analyzes and adjusts when necessary, protecting the pack and making sure it consistently meets all requirements. BMS and battery are so intertwined that ...
