embedded system is a computer system that has a dedicated, specific function typicallyoperating within a non-computational system. Often, embedded systems must perform real-timetasks, may or may not utilize a software operating system and have stringent cost andperformance constraints. As a result, embedded systems often are resource limited, having lessprocessing power and a smaller amount of memory than general purpose computing systems.Embedded systems are prevalent in a variety of industries including the automotive, aerospace,and consumer electronic markets.1The growing need for educating electrical and computer engineering students in the area ofembedded system design has been well documented.2 This need, along with strong support of
