Managing Design and Development of Electronic Embedded System Projects

Embedded systems and software are driving the new-age lifestyle, encompassing various aspects of modern life. As hardware becomes powerful and cost effective, embedded software in devices expands its footprint in various areas such as consumer electronics, transportation, medicine, and manufacturing.

Due to the complex system context of embeddedsoftware applications, defects can cause life-threatening situations, delays can create huge costs, and insufficient productivity can impact entire economies. Providing better estimates, setting objectives, and identifying critical hot spots in embedded-software engineering requires adequate benchmarking data.

The goal is to define a model using which the design and development of electronic embedded system projects can be managed effectively. This enables the project team to systematically and effectively identify, track and ultimately realize project goals. To optimize timelines, productivity and quality of embedded system development, industry needs process techniques and project management methods that are able to effectively tackle specific situation.
