Software models can help developers understand, clarify, and communicate ideas about their code and the user requirements it must support. But I’ve learned through experience, surveying, and ...

The embedded engineers chose a real-time control and analysis approach for their design. The purpose was to provide the engine with torque reference tracking while minimizing brake-specific fuel ...

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 ...

Use of modeling software can help improve process understanding, and can be used in open- or closed-loop control. Process modeling is becoming established as a method to design and optimize ...

One of the most difficult challenges in SoC verification today is determining how to make sure the hardware and software work together at the SoC level. The commonly deployed process is to verify 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 ...

Version control – increasingly a de facto part of the embedded software development process – has changed a lot in the past few years. This has major implications for any organisation reviewing its ...
