DE Lectures, articles, and books constantly emphasize that code quality is a crucial factor for project success. Therefore, there are ongoing attempts to introduce regulations that improve code quality. However, the code written by many developers...
Embedded and Real-Time Software Engineering
Development processes as the basis of modern software development
In professional software engineering, the development and process steps prior to software implementation are essential. Terms such as software analysis and software design, or high-level and detailed software design, from development processes (for example, the V-Model XT or the...).
Real-time software: Embedded programming and operating systems
What does professional embedded software development look like today? A quick introduction to the world of real-time operating systems and embedded software programming in EC and EC++. Based on the software architecture refined in the software design, you will implement (program)...
Don't always reinvent the wheel: Successfully use architectural patterns in the embedded environment
Embedded projects usually start very small. And often, no thought is given to the software architecture in the initial stages. The application is supposed to work quickly – and the problems with the new hardware still need to be solved. But such an approach quickly backfires. At the latest...
A full program! MicroConsult at the ESE Congress 2018 – Mastering new challenges with up-to-date expertise
Since 2008, the embedded software community has met annually at the ESE Congress in Sindelfingen. This year, MicroConsult invites you to an intensive exchange of knowledge and experience, as well as the opportunity to forge valuable contacts across industry boundaries. MicroConsult is not only...
Modern low-level driver programming
CMSIS, MCAL, and others – off-the-shelf low-level drivers. Embedded systems are found in many areas today. They are often a crucial factor for convenience, safety, sustainability, and innovation. The proportion of software in embedded systems continues to increase. And so does the hardware, whether...
Embedded software design: Developing requirements and refining architectures
“According to experts, predictive maintenance will be the norm for virtually all rotating machinery within the next five to ten years. The rapid development of sensor technology and artificial intelligence is further accelerating this pace. This is linked to the Internet of Things (IoT)...
Requirements Engineering and Management Part 3: Managing, Tracking, and Linking Requirements
Capturing and managing requirements is a key to successful projects. Whether in a traditional or agile process environment, professional requirements engineering and management for embedded and real-time systems shortens your project durations and saves development time and resources.
Requirements Engineering and Management Part 2: Process, Procedure, Method
Capturing and managing requirements is a key to successful projects. Whether in a traditional or agile process environment, professional requirements engineering and management for embedded and real-time systems shortens your project durations and saves development time and resources.
Requirements Engineering and Management Part 1: Requirements – A checklist for maturity?
Capturing and managing requirements is a key to successful projects. Whether in a traditional or agile process environment, professional requirements engineering and management for embedded and real-time systems shortens your project durations and saves development time and resources.
Reliable indicators of impending software erosion and what you can do about it.
Successful embedded software is usually developed over a long period. During this process, relationships may occasionally be introduced into the code that don't belong there. Over time, the software deviates increasingly from the planned architecture – the...
10 Years of ESE Congress
Peter Siwon looks back at the early years of an event that, in ten years, has grown into Europe's largest congress for embedded software. How time flies! This phrase, heard from parents, grandparents, and other more mature contemporaries, always annoyed me when I...
