Senior Editor The simplest embedded systems center on microcontrollers running a single control loop. The loop may poll inputs or be interrupt driven, but as long as no other task ever requires ...

Shawn Liu of National Instruments describes how the speed ofdevelopment of new features in automotive applications are pushingdesigners towards off-the-shelf design tools and hardware. When ...

Analytics-driven embedded systems bring analytics to embedded applications, moving many of the functions found in cloud-based, big-data analytics to the source of data. This allows for more efficient ...

Noun: Application-specific software and custom-integrated circuits specifically designed and implanted to generate commands that bring forth the best possible performance from the machine to which ...

Students in our graduate certificate in Safety and Security of Autonomous Cyber-Physical Systems learn cyber-physical safety and security strategies arising from modern, advanced system control ...

Whendelving into the simulation-oriented models as applied to a typicalembedded control application, it’s interesting to note key touch pointsin a particular implementation. These points often serve ...

Embedded control systems are increasingly connected to complex local area networks, such as controller area networks (CAN) with up to 100 nodes, ZigBee wireless control networks with thousands of ...

NATICK, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--MathWorks today announced that SAIC Motor Corporation developed the hybrid control unit (HCU) for the Roewe 750 hybrid sedan by using Model-Based Design with Simulink, ...

As we covered last month, embedded motion control is operation-specific code targeted to microprocessors, FPGAs, and PLCs. As hardware becomes increasingly powerful, these controls do the same.
