A generation ago, while others used high level languages such as COBOL,FORTRAN, BASIC and Lisp, most embedded systems were programmed inassembler. Memories and applications were small and compilers ...

Embedded systems and networking are high-growth fields. Where they meet--in distributed embedded systems--there's a world of opportunity for new approaches. Just a few in the long list of applications ...

A fact of life in today's embedded systems is the increasingly distributed nature and complexity of the designs: multiple processor nodes on a network, multiple servers in a cluster, multiple ...

What is a distributed system? A distributed system is a collection of independent computers that appear to the user as a single coherent system. To accomplish a common objective, the computers in a ...

Proper safeguarding of safety-critical systems in an automotive environment cannot be ensured sufficiently without taking timing into consideration. The failure to observe timing constraints can lead ...

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.

Embedded controllers of all sizes and capabilities are ubiquitous today, though rarely seen by consumers. Mobile handsets, for instance, contain as many as a dozen different embedded devices ...

The Embedded Systems Engineering (ESE) subplan in our Professional Master's Program provides comprehensive coverage of essential embedded technologies, current tools and trends. It is structured to ...
