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 ...

I recently presented arguments for and against using dynamic memory allocation in C and C++ programs. 1 I do agree that truly safety-critical systems should avoid using dynamic allocation because the ...

Embedded-software technology appears to lag behind new trends. That's largely because embedded developers have a cautious, conservative attitude that comes from years of experience contending with ...

Mention embedded programming and most will automatically think of C. But while it’s still the dominant language for the space, these days C has lots of company. The Internet of Things (IoT) is one 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 ...

Learn about the importance of testing not only the hardware and software inside automotive and other safety-critical applications, but also the software tools used to program them in the first place.

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 ...

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 ...
