Originally published in the November 1988 Embedded Systems Programming magazine. Correction is the final step of any debugging exercise. Sometimes bug eradication is straightforward; sometimes a bug ...

Embedded TDD tests the logic that sits on top of your hardware and could reveal bad logic, with no hardware to muddy the diagnosis.

BARR-C:2018 is fully harmonized with MISRA C:2012. Many firmware developers choose to combine bug-killing stylistic rules from the BARR-C standard with safety guidelines from MISRA C. BARR-C:2018 is ...

Ask most embedded developers why they're still writing firmware in C, and you'll hear the same answer: "C++ is too heavy for embedded." That concern has merit. It's also more than 20 years out of date ...

One of the key benefits of the C language, which is the reason it is so popular for embedded applications, is that it is a high-level, structured programming language, but has low-level capabilities.

Unit testing is a technique of breaking the code in small units of the entire code. These units can be verified to check the behaviour of a specific aspect of the software. One of the major challenges ...

Part 2 discusses the process of integrating Embedded MATLAB code into Simulink models as part of a Model-Based Design workflow. Many embedded developers are familiar with the idea-to-implementation ...

Dennis Ritchie started developing the C programming language (Fig. 1) in 1969 at AT&T’s Bell Labs. In 1972, Dennis Ritchie and Brian Kernighan delivered the quintessential book, The C Programming ...

The annual Embedded World conference brings together thousands of vendors and customers to see and discuss the latest developments in the embedded electronics supply chain. Embedded World is a global ...
