At the intersection of hardware and software architecture, embedded systems are integral in applications including smart devices, wearables, autonomous systems, security and defense technologies, ...

It is not always easy to tell a book by its cover, and Computers as Components: Principles of Embedded Computer Design by Wayne Wolf fits into this category. The title alludes to a component-based ...

In Jack Ganssle’s anthology, Embedded Systems: World Class Design, he has collected over a dozen articles that span the embedded system design spectrum. Ganssle’s compilation touches on motors, ...

In any system design, there are always trade-offs that need to be made. Unfortunately, there is rarely a time when you can get your cake and eat it, too! Modern embedded systems have exceptionally ...

System-on-module (SOM) technology is based on industry-standard logic fabrics combined with the latest-generation FPGAs and all the required supporting structures. They are completely self-contained ...

One of the last things the Linux kernel does during system boot is mount the root filesystem. The Linux kernel dictates no filesystem structure, but user space applications expect to find files with ...

ECEN 5613 is a 3 credit hour course and is the first course in CU's Professional Certificate in Embedded Systems. It is one of the Embedded Systems Engineering program core courses and provides an ...

One of the biggest dreams anyone has is to make a living doing what they love. For all hackers, makers, and DIYers with a passion for embedded systems, it may make sense initially to pursue embedded ...

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 the world of embedded systems, the language debate is alive and well. For years, C has dominated this space, its minimalistic design and low-level control giving embedded engineers the tools to ...

The burgeoning workloads of embedded systems development teams means reuse of software code, hardware and hardware IP is increasingly the norm, and the use of development boards in embedded design is ...

How can you cover all the bases for embedded systems security? This step-by-step guide takes you through best practices. Embedded systems security is an essential concern in the modern landscape.
