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 ...

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 ...

The introduction of Nucleus Process Model to the Nucleus Real Time Operating System (RTOS) maintains the key characteristics of an RTOS and adds many of the benefits of a large scale OS, such as ...

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 ...

An operating system (OS) is an optional part of an embedded device’s system software stack, meaning that not all embedded systems have one. OSs can be used on any processor (Instruction Set ...

Most embedded architects think of AI as a coding shortcut. But the real power isn’t in cranking out boilerplate code, it’s in transforming how we design systems. Imagine capturing key decisions in ...

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 ...

In my earlier post, How to define your ideal embedded build system, we discussed build systems and how important it is to define your modern embedded build system. A build system forms the foundation ...
