The complexity associated with the development of embedded systems is increasing rapidly. For instance, it is estimated that the average complexity of software projects in the automotive industry has ...

There appears to be an unwritten law about the time spent in debug-it is a constant. It could be that all gains made by improvements in tools and methodologies are offset by increases in complexity, ...

Debugging embedded designs is becoming increasingly difficult as the number of observed and possible interactions between hardware and software continue to grow, and as more features are crammed into ...

It’s an oft-repeated tale that the grand dame of military computing, computer scientist and U.S. Navy Rear Admiral Grace Hopper, coined the terms bug and debug after an incident involving Harvard ...

Debugging is pervasive in both computing education and more generally in problem-solving across many disciplines. "Debugging by Design" focuses on the development of debugging for engineering ...

Tools for debugging embedded systems range from software monitors and simulators, which are independent of the hardware under development, to custom silicon for in-circuit emulation, which replaces ...

Design verification has been the biggest challenge for any IC design company for decades now. EDA tools and verification methods have evolved a lot over the last two decades, but along with that, the ...

The circular history buffer debugging technique uses a fixed amount of memory to hold the most recent software events leading up to the failure. Older software events are overwritten. Information ...
