21 Warning Signs You Need More Information On Computing

By John Whitecloud


An embedded system is technology that allows a computer to carry out a single or a variety of specific operations within real-time. By and large, it's an embedded application that is installed as an integral component of some device. Rather than being a piece of a general computer carrying out multiple functions, it is designed to work on some definite tasks with the aid of microprocessors within the computer. This makes way for an improved real-time performance as required by most modern technologies. An embedded system is made up of tiny, chip like components contained in larger equipment that carries out more general functions. Engineers are compelled to optimize embedded systems since they are intended to perform specific tasks for improving the performance and reliability of the product while reducing its cost and size.

Some form of embedded software enables the production of various merchandise. Many of the devices that we are presently enjoying are taking advantage of the embedded technology; examples are household appliances, consumer electronic devices, wireless gadgets, cars, etc. There is practically no electronic equipment or device that are not controlled by embedded solutions from the communication equipments, digital or display boards, computers and a lot more. And nowadays, practically all sectors that include media, transportation, telecommunications, medical, education, science, aviation, space exploration and so much more have a need for embedded system solutions in their devices or equipments.

Embedded technology is also found in variety of consumer products such as computers, laptops, DVD/MP3/Blue ray players, digital camera, PDAs, cell phones, etc. Advances in embedded technology has even redirected the use of this system to include even the appliances found in our home such as washing machines, dishwashers, microwave ovens, etc. These embedded system technology is found from the smallest portable devices such as the digital watch to the largest of equipment and machinery that are used in the factories.

It is estimated that that the embedded solutions industry will require about a million workers in the year 2015. So, there will be plenty of career opportunities for those who have the knack for software development, development production, re-designing of existing technology or designing of new ones, etc. With the way things are going in terms of electronic hardware instrumentation, the demand for embedded solutions experts is likely to increase, which makes this estimation rather feasible.

Not only are embedded solutions professionals demanded by private corporations as well as consulting firms but even the government is looking for people that have appropriate training in this area of expertise. In other words, because of the extensive used of embedded technology in the various industries and in almost every aspect of modern living, there is a tremendous demand for professionals who are trained and equipped with sufficient knowledge in embedded systems.
