Most embedded systems are reactive by nature. They measure certain properties of their environment with sensors and react on changes. For example, they display something, move a motor, or send a ...

Defining device drivers Discussing the difference between architecture-specific and board-specific drivers Providing several examples of different types of device drivers Most embedded hardware ...

The annual Embedded World conference brings together thousands of vendors and customers to see and discuss the latest developments in the embedded electronics supply chain. Embedded World is a global ...

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.

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 ...

Analytics-driven embedded systems bring analytics to embedded applications, moving many of the functions found in cloud-based, big-data analytics to the source of data. This allows for more efficient ...

Opinions expressed by Digital Journal contributors are their own. The telecommunications industry is one of the most dramatically transformed industries in contemporary history, principally due to ...

We've seen in the previous articles how Ada can be used to describe high-level semantics and architecture. The beauty of the language, however, is that it can be used all the way down to the lowest ...

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 ...

Many people wonder if embedded systems and robotics are the same thing. While they work together, they have different jobs. Here is a guide to help understand the difference. An embedded system is a ...
