Technical Editor Robert Cravotta explores processor and software-processing architectures and the impact they have on system and software development. Relevant architectures include microprocessors, microcontrollers, digital signal processors (DSPs), multiprocessor architectures, processor fabrics, coprocessors, and accelerators, plus embedded cores in FPGAs, SOCs, and ASICs.

There are two sets of posts going out in this series in conjunction with my article on multiprocessing options – the series here and the series in our guest blog. Today’s guest post is from Mark Hermeling, Senior Product Manager, Wind River Systems. I encourage you to read both series of posts as they are intended to be complementary. I am alternating posts between the two series. My next post will expand on feedback-based multiprocessing.
If you missed the previous post in this series, check out my comments about multidomain-based multiprocessing in this multiprocessing series.
