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 ...

This online engineering specialization will help you elevate your skills from a beginning practitioner to a more advanced real-time system analyst and designer. You will dive deeper into ...

The actual definition of real-time database versus the abused interpretation used by marketers of real fast database systems. The interplay of transient and persistent memory, and hard and soft ...

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.

Real-time scheduling algorithms determine the order and timing with which tasks execute in embedded systems subject to stringent timing constraints. These algorithms seek to guarantee that critical ...

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 ...

It’s easy to forget that embedded Linux can’t do everything for all embedded developers. While it is suitable for some applications with many megabytes of memory and powerful processors, there are a ...

Designing an embedded system with security in mind has become necessary for many industries. The drive to connect a device to the internet allows remote attacks on the system. Developers who want to ...

Embedded system developers have a wide range of operating systems available to them today. Of course, the most straightforward operating system is to have no operating system! However, many systems ...

Many embedded developers program in C because they think C++ adds overhead and will not work well for real-time applications. There's some validity to that and understanding how to utilize C++ ...

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 ...

Business analytics is an increasingly powerful tool for organisations, but one that is associated with steep learning curves and significant investments in infrastructure. The idea of using data to ...
