Virtualization has revolutionized IT by providing flexibility, convenience, and increased robustness of IT infrastructures. Virtualization has also helped software developers designing for standard ...

This paper describes a complete Systems and Embedded Software Validation & Verification workflow that uses SCADE for modeling and simulating the controller software and a combination of other modeling ...

The first thing any embedded software developer does when they are told they get to work on a new project is ask for a development kit. A development kit allows the development team to get familiar ...

Energy-driven computing is an emerging paradigm that aims to fuel the proliferation of tiny and low-cost IoT sensing and monitoring devices. Energy-driven computers are generally powered by energy ...

There are many ways to debug an embedded application. A debug tool, comprising in-circuit emulators (ICEs) and in-circuit debuggers (ICDs), enables the designer to prototype a system quickly, and ...

There’s something that kills coding speed—iteration time. If you can smash a function key and run your code, then watch it break, tweak, and smash it again—you’re working fast. But if you have to ...

Mechatronics unites mechanical structures, electronic actuation and embedded computation into integrated systems capable of perception, decision‐making and physical interaction. Simulation and ...

As we covered last month, embedded motion control is operation-specific code targeted to microprocessors, FPGAs, and PLCs. As hardware becomes increasingly powerful, these controls do the same.

Silicon photonics is rewiring the future of data centers. But engineers need more advanced simulation tools to integrate these light-slinging components with electronics. How silicon photonics ...
