Medical device companies, especially those with real-time embedded-system products, are often burdened with lengthy verification cycles. Even small development efforts can result in months of ...

A real-time system must respect time constraints to ensure that its execution makes functional sense. It must be deterministic, ensuring the execution of system processes a priori. After analyzing the ...

Why external consistency is so important for a hard real-time database. Maintaining a transaction timeline. The impact of a transaction-scheduling policy. A real-time database-management system (DMBS) ...

With the rising complexity of embedded systems and the difficulty in finding bugs, observability tools seem to be the new alternative for developers.

Wind River Systems, the leading provider of a realtime embedded operating system known as VxWorks, for example, unveiled this week its first reselling agreement with semiconductor distributor the ...

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 ...

Embedded systems are increasingly prevalent in nearly every aspect of human life. Innovations made possible by embedded systems are making our lives healthier, safer, cleaner, and more stimulating.

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 ...

At the start of the year, I highlighted key trends in 5 Embedded Software Trends to Watch in 2024, predicting the forces shaping the industry. As the year unfolded, many of these trends indeed drove ...

Have you and your team ever taken some time to sit down and define what your build system should be? I often see teams start a project with the loose idea that they ...

The actual definition of real-time database versus the abused interpretation used by marketers of real fast database systems. The interplay of transient and persistent memory, and hard and soft ...

A real time system must respect time constraints to ensure that its execution makes functional sense. A real-time operating system or RTOS (sometimes known as a real-time executive kernel) is a ...
