In the world of embedded systems, it isn’t just the technology that continues to develop and evolve. The tools and the methods used to develop that technology are maturing and improving in tandem. In ...

Swedish tool developer Atollic has launched a version of ts TrueSTUDIO development environment for embedded C and C++ that includes code testing and test quality measurement features as standard. The ...

All electronic systems carry the possibility of failure. An embedded system has intrinsic intelligence that facilitates the possibility of predicting failure and mitigating its effects. This two-part ...

The idea of unit testing has been around for many years. "Test early, test often" is a mantra that concerns unit testing as well. However, in practice, not many software projects have the luxury of ...

Virtualization helps overcome the limitations of traditional test systems. By consolidating multiple PCs into a single solution, the system becomes more compact, cost-efficient, and yet powerful.

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

When embedded engineers hear "simulation," they immediately think QEMU, Renode, or some vendor-specific tool that lets them run firmware on a virtual microcontroller. These tools are excellent, and ...

Applications such as smart cards and devices used in the defense industry require security features to ensure that sensitive data is inaccessible to outside agents. This used to be a niche requirement ...

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 ...

Embedded systems have become a cornerstone of modern technology, powering everything from IoT devices to automotive control systems. These specialized systems rely on software that is lightweight, ...
