11. What are the embedded systems?

WHAT ARE THE EMBEDDED SYSTEMS?
Embedded systems:
Computer system designed to do one or a few dedicated
and/or specific functions often with real-time
constraints.
Embedded as part of a complete device often including
hardware and mechanical parts
Embedded software:
Software for embedded systems
Equipment (hardware) and software part of the product
shall be considered together with equipment

12. application of embedded system devices

APPLICATION OF EMBEDDED SYSTEM DEVICES
There are some embedded systems in every electric and
mechanical systems.
Automobiles, Train(Shinkansen), Aircraft, Digital Camera, Digital
TV, Air-conditioner, Robot, Mobile phone, etc.

17. Embedded Software Development Specifics

EMBEDDED SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT SPECIFICS
Resource constraints
Cost limitations especially for the mass products
Low RAM, CPU usage
Time constrains (real time response).
Low power consumption, operating environment (e.g.
temperature), weight
→ Real Time OS are used or OS-less solutions
Quality and Reliability
Malfunction of the equipment directly related to system
malfunction
Higher cost of recovery system
Customer expectations for equipment reliability

18. Fun of Embedded Software Development

FUN OF EMBEDDED SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT
Purely algorithmic programming
Direct work with hardware and OS entities, allows to
understand deeply how your device works – phone,
gadget, computer
Our target is not tiny assembler written code, it can be
even RDBMS for small devices
Kind of hacking sometimes
Allows to work on variety of platforms
(hardware, OS)

19. Why Software Engineering?

WHY SOFTWARE ENGINEERING?
Challenges
High quality requirements
High level of collaboration
Budget and time limitation
Solution
Application of Software Engineering processes
Quality Assurance
Project Management processes
Everyone is a Project Team member
