Every developer wants to develop robust systems. No one wants to point to a product that behaves poorly and say, “I built that.” Many factors come into play when designing and implementing a robust ...

In the world of embedded systems, it isn’t just the technology that continues to develop and evolve. The tools and the methods used to develop that technology are maturing and improving in tandem. In ...

The idea of unit testing has been around for many years. "Test early, test often" is a mantra that concerns unit testing as well. However, in practice, not many software projects have the luxury of ...

No matter what type of embedded system you build, you must test it. Tests give us a warm fuzzy feeling that our system works correctly under specific environmental and operational conditions. While ...

While the use of complex system-on-a-chip (SoC) designs has increased, unfortunately, that hasn't increased the time-to-market window for designers and chip manufacturers. As SoC designs become more ...

Testing, alone, cannot find all potential failure points for real-time embedded software, particularly in multithreading environments. In part 2 of Sean Beatty's article on errors that escape ...

Engineers are beginning to appreciate that, from prototypes early in the design cycle through to final system test, a digital pattern generator (DPG) speeds up system debug and therefore shortens the ...

Researchers have developed a technique for detecting types of malware that use a system's architecture to thwart traditional security measures. The new detection approach works by tracking power ...

Advances in embedded AI, connectivity, and security are reshaping embedded system architectures. While compute skyrockets, ...

Why next-generation avionics validation is becoming a value driver for aircraft leases. Avionics are the nervous system of the modern aircraft, and the way those systems are tested is evolving almost ...

TYSONS CORNER, VA, April 23, 2021 — Science Applications International Corp. (NYSE: SAIC) and its small business partners will provide embedded system testing support under a potential $3.6 billion ...
