Software architecture has long faced the problem of operating within system boundaries where specific requirements dominate: ...

LONDON — MIPS Technologies Inc. will present a series of enhancements to the basic MIPS32/MIPS64 instruction set architecture at this week's Microprocessor Forum in San Jose, Calif. Changes in such ...

Embedded systems power the modern world—quietly running inside vehicles, medical devices, industrial controllers, routers, consumer electronics, and countless “smart” products.

Real-time operating systems (RTOS) and Linux each bring their own advantages for embedded-systems designers. With an RTOS, designers can build deterministic multi-threaded applications with low memory ...

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.

Every good hardware or software design starts with a structured approach throughout the design cycle, but as chip architectures and applications begin focusing on specific domains and include some ...

The operating system has long played a critical role in embedded systems. A prime historical purpose of the operating system is to simplify the life of electronic product developers, freeing them to ...

According to IEEE 1471, “A software architecture is the fundamental organization of a system embodied in its components, their relationship to each other and the environment, and the principles ...

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 ...
