When I first started to develop embedded software more than 15 years ago, embedded software engineers had a very specific skillset. They were often electrical engineers who not only understood how the ...

At the intersection of hardware and software architecture, embedded systems are integral in applications including smart devices, wearables, autonomous systems, security and defense technologies, ...

I’m not sure what it is about summer--whether it’s more downtime, more sun, or whatever the reason--but summer seems to be the perfect time to catch up on reading. I often get asked by readers and ...

While winging my way last month to Phoenix for the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair, I pondered a pair of dilemmas. One is finding ways to employ emerging science and engineering ...

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.

What are the five primary and interconnected design decisions that must be addressed during the hardware design cycle? Embedded hardware designers face a wide range of design challenges and options ...

Computer engineering is a broad field that sits in between the hardware of electrical engineering and the software of computer science. When computer engineers design hardware, they focus on what the ...

I was excited about engineering before I was in high school. I discovered programming then and you can tell I’ve been around for a while—my first exposure to software was programming in BASIC on a ...
