What are the five core principles of hardware/software co-design? How do these principles help build a geographically diverse engineering organization that can successfully develop complex solutions ...

When I first started to develop embedded software more than 15 years ago, embedded software engineers had a very specific skillset. They were often electrical engineers who not only understood how the ...

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

In previous articles, we looked at how to configure the kernel as well as the key components of an embedded operating system (OS). This new article focuses on the hardware components of embedded Linux ...

For the past 20 years, the industry has sought to deploy hardware/software co-design concepts. While it is making progress, software/hardware co-design appears to have a much brighter future. In order ...

What are the main issues behind the “painful” process of embedded-systems design? Shortages of resources, components, and talent plague the design process. How the instability of toolsets and driver ...

The rule of thumb in embedded system design has been that addinghardware increases power demands. The careful use of hardwareaccelerators, however, inverts the rule: adding hardware can reducepower.

This online engineering specialization will help you gain proficiency in creating prototypes or products for a variety of applications using Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). You will cover a ...

Nearly every embedded system requires some level of security, whether its just the basics to lock down the programming port or something more complex to protect a connected device from hackers. For ...

The world of the hardware design engineer has changed dramatically in recent years. Designers no longer sit and code RTL in isolation to meet a paper specification, and then wait for a hardware ...

Connected devices and systems have become an integral part of our everyday life and we take this for granted. Finding the fastest way to our destination with a smartphone, reading the news on a tablet ...
