Speakers including analyst Jim Feldhan predicted a bright future for configurable processor cores at ARC International's ConfigCon Silicon Valley 2006 conference Monday.
In the second part in a two part series Rob Irwin of Altium Limited, outlines the basic components in an integrated FPGA/embedded development environment.
In the first of a two part series, Rob Irwin of Altium looks at the unfulfilled potential of today's programmable device technology and what is limiting them from being fully embraced by embedded developers.
Following a meeting at QNX Software Systems, objectives have been finalized for Eclipse CDT 4.0, the next version of the open-source C/C++ development environment within the Eclipse framework.
Signal processing algorithms and the DSPs used to run them have specialized characteristics. As a result, compilers can't generate efficient DSP code without help from the programmer. BDTI explains how to coax efficient code from your compiler.
Learn how to model DSP algorithms in SystemC without being a SystemC expert. These models facilitate hardware/software partitioning, and allow you to consider communication and memory architectures when designing your algorithm. These models also ease software development and hardware verification.
Release Candidate 2 is slated to be Microsoft's final interim version of Windows Vista before it's prepped for shipping. We put it through its paces to see if the operating system is really ready to roll.
Using some open source Internet software, David Kleidermacher of GHS illustrates the benefits of static code analysis and how to use such techniques to test and debug your embedded software
