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

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 ...

With the proliferation of IoT devices come increased embedded security attacks. Historically, embedded system engineers have ignored device-layer security despite the many areas of embedded devices ...

Companies specializing in circuit board and system design-for-test (DFT) tools are pursuing a variety of strategies to serve test and debug applications based on innovations they announced over the ...

In the world of embedded systems, it isn’t just the technology that continues to develop and evolve. The tools and the methods used to develop that technology are maturing and improving in tandem. In ...

I recently took an extended briefing in the form of attending a regional developers' conference in I-495 tech corridor Massachusetts on embedded development and deployment strategies. The host, Wind ...

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 ...

One of the biggest bottlenecks in the software development process for electronic products is that hardware is not available until late in the cycle. That means embedded software developers need to ...

Applications such as smart cards and devices used in the defense industry require security features to ensure that sensitive data is inaccessible to outside agents. This used to be a niche requirement ...

Testing, alone, cannot find all potential failure points for real-time embedded software, particularly in multithreading environments. In part 2 of Sean Beatty's article on errors that escape ...
