What are the main programming paradigms in embedded software? Which of them can be mixed together and which are like “oil and water”? NOTE: Embedded.fm
On the free support forum for the QP state machine frameworks, an engineer has recently asked a question “superloop vs event dispatching“, which I quote
Key Concept: A Real-Time Embedded Framework (RTEF) is an implementation of the Active Object design pattern specifically designed for real-time embedded systems. RTEF provides the
Key Concept: Active Objects combine event-driven programming with multithreading. They naturally implement and automatically enforce the best practices of concurrent programming. Best Practices Active Object
Key Concept: Embedded systems need a program structure that can respond to a multitude of possible event sequences, any of which can arrive at unpredictable
Key Concept: A sequential program explicitly waits in-line, for the expected events in various places in the execution path. This explicit waiting for events is

For a number of years I’ve been getting questions regarding protothreads and comparisons to state machines. Here is what I think: Protothreads in a Nutshell
Recently I’ve been involved in a discussion on the LinkedIn Real-Time Embedded Engineering group, which I started with the question “Is an RTOS really the
In my previous post, “RTOS Considered Harmful”, I have identified blocking as the main cause of the particular brittleness and inflexibility of the programs based
I have to confess that I’ve been experiencing a severe writer’s block lately. It’s not that I’m short of subjects to talk about, but I’m
In my previous post “A Heap of Problems” I have compiled a list of problems the free store (heap) can cause in real-time embedded (RTE)
Some design problems never seem to go away. You think that anybody who has been in the embedded software development business for a while must
