Embedded systems are ubiquitous in our daily lives, from medical devices to automotive systems to smart homes, yet the most popular embedded programming language poses significant safety and security ...

Embedded systems have always been about squeezing every ounce of performance from limited hardware. From hand-optimized assembly to finely tuned C, we’ve spent years writing efficient code, minimizing ...

Have you and your team ever taken some time to sit down and define what your build system should be? I often see teams start a project with the loose idea that they ...

This installment starts a new segment of lessons about state machines. The subject conceptually continues the event-driven theme and is one of my favorites [1,2]. Today, you’ll learn what event-driven ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Three Purdue University researchers and their teammates at the University of California, Santa Barbara and Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL) have received a ...

FreeRTOS, the open-source operating system that powers most of the small microprocessors and microcontrollers in smart homes and critical infrastructure systems has 13 vulnerabilities, a third of them ...

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.

Like in nature, development tools for embedded systems form “ecosystems.” Some ecosystems are very self-contained, with little overlap on others, while other ecosystems are very open and broad with ...

These all seem like great options because developers can focus more on what they do best and automate tasks they don’t like or don't have time for. But here’s the catch: While you’re pushing off as ...
