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 ...

Back when I first started in embedded systems, everything was about hardware. You had to get that board running, flash some LEDs, write a few drivers, and then pray ...

How embedded AI hardware reliability is handled in the defense and aerospace fields. How that reliability is assured and tested. With artificial intelligence progressing into areas as diverse as ...

One of the last things the Linux kernel does during system boot is mount the root filesystem. The Linux kernel dictates no filesystem structure, but user space applications expect to find files with ...

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 right blend of tools, technologies, and strategies can help developers harness the power of CD, enabling higher quality and more robust embedded systems. The convergence of software and hardware ...

RISC-V ISA is evolving powerfully as an industry-standard open ISA, supporting heterogeneous computing architectures for next-generation SoCs that use all kinds of processors, including CPUs, GPUs, ...

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.

I know it sounds like an arrogant statement. Maybe even some fighting words. Take a moment to think about that statement, though. It's a blessing in disguise! When a hardware mistake is made, ...

Prepare for Safety-Critical Embedded Systems at MTU. When software lives inside machines, failure isn’t an inconvenience—it’s a safety, reliability, and security risk. From vehicles and aircraft to ...

Embedded systems are generally stripped-down, resource-limited and task-specific. Keeping this in mind, some IT administrators might wonder if virtualizing such a device is worth the effort. But there ...
