In today's interconnected world, embedded systems are ubiquitous – from automobiles and industrial controls to IoT devices. But with increasing connectivity, security risks also rise. Cyberattacks, data leaks, and insecure implementations can cause serious...
The demands on embedded systems are constantly increasing, and real-time capabilities in Linux environments are becoming increasingly easier to achieve. Since Linux kernel version 6.12, the PREEMPT_RT extension for real-time capability has been directly integrated into the mainline kernel. Developers therefore no longer need to...
With the real-time operating system (RTOS) Zephyr, developers have a versatile open-source alternative at their disposal, optimized for small systems. Unlike Linux, which is designed for high-performance systems, Zephyr is particularly well-suited for microcontroller-based applications, where...
The ESE Congress 2024 was a showcase for innovation, networking, and optimism. In a friendly yet professional atmosphere, nearly 1100 software developers from more than 400 companies and institutions gathered at the Congress Center Sindelfingen from December 2nd to 5th...
Virtualization has long been established in server and desktop environments, but the embedded sector has benefited less from it so far. MicroConsult trainer Marcus Gößler explores the reasons for this in his presentation at the ESE Congress 2024 and addresses the question of how sensible it is...
Software plays an increasingly central role in today's embedded systems. Systems based on complex microcontroller and processor architectures must offer more functionalities – and in shorter development times than ever before. This presents developers with...
Virtualization is revolutionizing the embedded sector, but due to technical challenges, it remains rarely implemented. Infineon's third-generation AURIX™ microcontroller now promises native support. Learn what virtualization means and what advantages it offers...
In practice, every embedded software must perform a multitude of distributed and centrally coordinated tasks. Software patterns not only ensure conceptual integrity but also enable scalability across different projects. In the second part...
Embedded software must coordinate various central tasks across the entire software. The classic example is initialization, which must occur at all levels of the software. Upon closer examination, many more of these software-wide actions can be identified, depending on the product...
In the dynamic world of embedded software development, reliability and efficiency are crucial. Choosing the right programming language can have a tremendous impact on a project's success. Rust has established itself as one of the leading options, offering...
In December 2023, the Sindelfingen town hall once again opened its doors for the annual Embedded Software Engineering Congress (ESE Congress). With nearly 1,200 participants, including a large number of young software developers, the congress once again demonstrated its importance...
With wogtest, we make it easier for developers to integrate test-driven development into embedded projects – without the complexity of Google Test, without time-consuming porting, and free to download. Embedded systems often present software developers with a number of challenges,...
