With a model-centric approach, embedded-system designers can verify and validate their products as a parallel activity throughout the development process.
Tales From The Cube: When recycling old embedded code, the whole become less than the sum of the parts when you're up against a tradeshow deadline, of course.
The move from DDR2 to DDR3 requires new design techniques to improve signal integrity and gain the maximum benefit from the latest memory-interface technology.
Tales From The Cube: A rattled engineer needs to make sure his fix is just right for a failed over-speed sensor on an 1800-hp Solar Saturn jet-turbine-driven gas compressor.
Although its use requires a significant change in design methodology, FPGA technology has become a valuable weapon in the embedded-system developer's arsenal.
