The ARM architecture has now established its 8th generation processor which is the ARMv8-R which is used for real-time embedded system products denoting the suffix “R”. The ARM architecture has now ...

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 ...

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 ...

Architecture Analysis and Design Language (AADL) is a standardised modelling language widely used to describe and analyse the architectures of embedded real-time systems. AADL provides a formal ...

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 ...

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 ...

A real-time system must respect time constraints to ensure that its execution makes functional sense. It must be deterministic, ensuring the execution of system processes a priori. After analyzing the ...

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 ...

This fifth lesson on RTOS finally addresses the real-time aspect of the “Real-Time Operating System” name. Specifically, in the video lesson 26, you add a preemptive, priority-based scheduler to the ...

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 ...
