Processor architectures are beginning to hit performance ceilings both in terms of shrinking substrate geometry and increasing clock speeds. Consequently, Engineers are having to look at other ways to ...

In the past, chip manufacturers increased processor clock speed to double chip performance from 100 MHz to 200 MHz and more recently into the multigigahertz range. Today, however, increasing clock ...

Many of the developments in silicon, software and development tools that embedded engineers use today first appeared in disciplines other than embedded computing, and have been adopted and adapted ...
