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 ...

Computing today is not restricted to your desktop computer. Printers, cell phones, and life-support systems are examples of systems that could not operate without reliable software. Building real-time ...

The proliferation of multicore processors has done more than provide a boost in processing power to server applications. Multicore chips also pose the opportunity to revolutionize how embedded systems ...

Real-time and embedded systems operate in constrained environments in which memory and processing power are limited. They must provide their services within strict time deadlines to their users and to ...

Dynamic memory allocators for real-time embedded systems need to fulfill three fundamental requirements: bounded worst-case execution time, fast average execution time, and minimal fragmentation.

A newly released update to Linux delivers kernel pre-emption, improved scheduling, and a Posix (Portable Operating System Interface for Unix) for enhanced real-time performance. Depending on the ...

As more complex devices with higher levels of integration are inserted into real-time systems, traditional testing methods are becoming obsolete. The most difficult obstacle to thorough testing of ...

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 ...

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 ...

You might argue that the interface and abstraction will cost too much. That’s a misconception. An extra function call won't ...

This online engineering specialization will help you elevate your skills from a beginning practitioner to a more advanced real-time system analyst and designer. You will dive deeper into ...
