Description
This book was the first to bring essential knowledge on embedded systems technology and techniques under a single cover. This second
edition has been updated to the state-of-the-art by reworking and expanding performance analysis with more examples and exercises, and
coverage of electronic systems now focuses on the latest applications. Researchers, students, and savvy professionals schooled in hardware
or software design, will value Wayne Wolf's integrated engineering design approach.
The second edition gives a more comprehensive
view of multiprocessors including VLIW and superscalar architectures as well as more detail about power consumption. There is also more
advanced treatment of all the components of the system as well as in-depth coverage of networks, reconfigurable systems, hardware-software
co-design, security, and program analysis. It presents an updated discussion of current industry development software including Linux
and Windows CE. The new edition's case studies cover SHARC DSP with the TI C5000 and C6000 series, and real-world applications such as
DVD players and cell phones.
Audience:
Students and practitioners of Embedded Systems Design
