Starting on June 20 and running through June 24, Design News will present the free course, Embedded Software Design Techniques. Each class runs an hour, beginning at 2:00 Eastern. You can also earn ...

According to IEEE 1471, “A software architecture is the fundamental organization of a system embodied in its components, their relationship to each other and the environment, and the principles ...

Embedded Software and Hardware Architecture is a first dive into understanding embedded architectures and writing software to manipulate this hardware. You will gain experience writing low-level ...

Connected devices and systems have become an integral part of our everyday life and we take this for granted. Finding the fastest way to our destination with a smartphone, reading the news on a tablet ...

Embedded software, once a challenge to write, update, and optimize, is following the route of other types of software. It is abstracted, simpler to use, and much faster to write. But in some cases, it ...

In today's lightning-fast software landscape, traditional architecture practices are becoming a bottleneck. The velocity and complexity of systems scaling across ephemeral microservices, complex APIs ...

As system complexities rise and management and market pressures drive tight schedules, engineers find that meeting schedules and budgets are constantly top concerns. The innate, driving, subconscious ...

AMD’s Heterogeneous System Architecture (HSA) hardware framework provides Heterogeneous Uniform Memory Access (hUMA) to CPUs and GPUs (Fig. 1). It radically changes the way CPUs and GPUs will interact ...

Semiconductors are no longer just components; they are the foundation of how modern devices behave, respond, and ...

There once was a time when system design was completely serial. Entire hardware platforms were designed, prototyped, debugged, and virtually completed before any software development began. Of course, ...
