Abstract

An embedded system is any computer that relies on its own microprocessor and is a part of a larger system. It is usually embedded as a part of a complete device that serves a more general purpose. Our society is increasingly depending on embedded computing systems such as robots, unmanned aerial vehicles self-driving cars, unmanned underwater vehicles, military and aerospace electronics. This paper provides a brief introduction on embedded computing systems.
