10. W HAT 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

11. 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.

16. E MBEDDED S OFTWARE D EVELOPMENT S PECIFICS 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 Quality and Reliability  Malfunction of the equipment directly related to system malfunction  Higher cost of recovery system  Customer expectations for equipment reliability

17. F UN OF E MBEDDED 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 and sometimes  Allows to work on variety of platforms (hardware, OS)

18. W HAT IS S OFTWARE E NGINEERING ?  Legitimate engineering discipline The application of a systematic, disciplined, quantifiable approach to the development, operation, and maintenance of software; that is, the application of engineering to software (IEEE definition)  Recognized profession  Applies Computer Science theory and practical result  The aim is: solving of the customer’s problems with computing means  Quality is the crucial point

19. W HAT IS S OFTWARE E NGINEERING ? System approach  Analysis  Identify activities and objects  Define the system boundary  Consider nested systems, systems interrelationship  Synthesis of solution  Creation of solution for system from subcomponents solutions
