Prepare for Safety-Critical Embedded Systems at MTU. When software lives inside machines, failure isn’t an inconvenience—it’s a safety, reliability, and security risk. From vehicles and aircraft to ...

Companies specializing in circuit board and system design-for-test (DFT) tools are pursuing a variety of strategies to serve test and debug applications based on innovations they announced over the ...

Taken literally, embedded test is just that: test capabilities that exist wholly embedded within a system. Power-on self-test is an example as is a built-in performance-monitoring feature programmed ...

The Embedded Systems Engineering (ESE) subplan in our Professional Master's Program provides comprehensive coverage of essential embedded technologies, current tools and trends. It is structured to ...

Embedded software and electronics represent an increasing percentage of the engineering content of an automobile. By 2010, electronics are expected to comprise 40 percent of automotive material costs, ...

If there is one thing in software engineering that is a given, it’s that engineers need continuous education. While graduating college might have made us think that we were “done,” the truth is that ...

As process technologies continue to shrink and memory size and design complexity grow, it has become increasingly difficult to achieve high manufacturing yield. Embedded memories are the most dense ...

There are few projects where embedded firmware developers have more time than they need for a project. In fact, embedded firmware development is more like a gas: they take up all the available space.

Applications such as smart cards and devices used in the defense industry require security features to ensure that sensitive data is inaccessible to outside agents. This used to be a niche requirement ...

I’m not sure what it is about summer--whether it’s more downtime, more sun, or whatever the reason--but summer seems to be the perfect time to catch up on reading. I often get asked by readers and ...
