McObject has released Version 3.0 of its eXtremeDB in-memory embedded database, for intelligent devices with support for NVRAM, task scheduling and remote access. One important enhancement to ...

Real-time scheduling algorithms determine the order and timing with which tasks execute in embedded systems subject to stringent timing constraints. These algorithms seek to guarantee that critical ...

A technical paper titled “Enabling HW-based Task Scheduling in Large Multicore Architectures” was published by researchers at Barcelona Supercomputing Center, University of Campinas, University of Sao ...

In previous articles, we have looked at the multi-tasking model and we have seen that each task is a quasi-independent program. Although tasks in an embedded application have a degree of independence, ...

Powerful high-level software tools give domain experts in such diverse fields as aerospace engineering, medical electronics, mechatronics, and even graphics design increasing control over the ...
