Every developer wants to develop robust systems. No one wants to point to a product that behaves poorly and say, “I built that.” Many factors come into play when designing and implementing a robust ...

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 ...

Makefiles are a fundamental tool that every embedded software developer needs to understand. Even if you use an Eclipse-based IDE, behind the scenes, a makefile is generated to build your objects ...

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 ...

The world today is buzzing with the potential that AI models like ChatGPT have to offer. The potential for AI to revolutionize how people work and play is staggering and, to some, a little scary. To ...

The rule of thumb in embedded system design has been that addinghardware increases power demands. The careful use of hardwareaccelerators, however, inverts the rule: adding hardware can reducepower.

In this course, students will design and build a microprocessor-based embedded system project managing real-time constraints while analyzing the system in-order to meet them. Students are expected to ...

The nature of embedded systems is being changed with the advent of graphical, intelligent human-machine interfaces and the Internet of Things. Every imaginable system, from coffee makers and washing ...

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 ...

Using sleep mode allows you to increase the life of your embedded systems. This will make a huge impact on the electronic components used in your embedded system applications. The term “sleep mode” ...
