| A Methodology for Reducing Development Time and Improving Reliability of Embedded System Hardware
by Vince Mazur
Gain insight into how today’s ad-hoc board level validation approaches can be replaced with an ordered methodology that will enable designers to automatically validate hardware designs, optimize system performance, and simplify the process of integrating new hardware with new software. Read more |
Hardware Validation
by Clive "Max" Maxfield and Joseph Skazinski
Only 10 Days to Shipping… We May Have a Memory Problem! How can software development engineers be provided a fully validated hardware platform upon which they can perform their final application integration prior to customer shipment? Read more |
Top 10 Reasons Not to Debug Hardware with Your OS and Application Software
by Steve Sheafor, Ph.D.
Despite opinions to the contrary, it is clear that the best tools not to debug new hardware is the Operating System and Application Code which will run on it. In an effort to settle this debate once and for all, we have developed the following list which you can use if your Management seems unconvinced. Read more |
