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 ...

In most embedded systems, C and C++ languages are commonly used as effective languages to control devices. In contrast, in embedded systems operated via the Android platform, developers should create ...

“Normal” programmers can get away with the assumption that their C programs start executing from the main() function. But embedded developers need to know what happens before that. Lesson 13 explores ...

Although the world of embedded software development languages seem to span somewhere between ASM and C89 all the way to MicroPython, there is a lot to be said for a happy medium between ease of ...

Embedded systems design and development can sometimes seem worlds apart from traditional application development on general computing devices and maybe even more so from Web development on the server ...

C remains the darling of embedded programmers, but C++ garners a sizable chunk. Using C++ features judiciously can result in code that’s as efficient or more efficient than a comparable C application.

Procedures for developing embedded systems are very complicated. New engineers typically take a long time to become familiar with these procedures. Therefore, we have developed a standard operating ...

Called the .NET nanoFramework, the project lets developers use the Visual Studio IDE and C# to write managed code applications for embedded systems without having to worry about the low-level ...

Properly allocating stack size requires calculation of maximum usage and steps to monitor stack overflow. Today’s sophisticated vehicles leverage embedded systems for everything from infotainment to ...
