Explore the future of embedded systems development with Claude Code. Learn how AI tools could deliver high-quality code faster.

An elegant solution to many embedded software systems problems is leveraging data-centric software design. Data is at the heart of every embedded system. First, data is acquired through sampling ...

Design patterns are formalized best practices that the programmer can use to solve common problems when designing an application or system. In software engineering, a software design pattern is a ...

A common, but mostly unconscious habit of software developers when theyface a problem is to break it down into its constituent elements, lookfor patterns of behavior and activity, and compare them to ...

Design patterns constitute a fundamental component in the architecture of software systems, providing standardised and reusable solutions to recurring design challenges. Originating from seminal works ...

What are the main issues behind the “painful” process of embedded-systems design? Shortages of resources, components, and talent plague the design process. How the instability of toolsets and driver ...

What is 'mission-critical' and do we need to rethink the concept in an era of long-lifecycle embedded systems?

Whenever an activity occurs in repetition, such as programming, patterns emerge and can be documented. The benefits of documenting and using software design patterns are well established, as are some ...

Connected devices and systems have become an integral part of our everyday life and we take this for granted. Finding the fastest way to our destination with a smartphone, reading the news on a tablet ...

The battery management system (BMS) monitors, analyzes and adjusts when necessary, protecting the pack and making sure it consistently meets all requirements. BMS and battery are so intertwined that ...

Here on Hackaday, we’re generally designers of hacks that live in the real world. Nevertheless, I’m convinced that some of the most interesting feats are at the mercy of what’s possible in software, ...
