Device Data Insight
  CEO VIEW   
 

Software pioneer, Charles Simonyi, nailed it when he said, “Software as we know it is the bottleneck on the digital horn of plenty.” Today, software on embedded devices has to process, integrate, and manage growing amounts of data from multiple sources and in multiple formats, creating an explosion in code size and complexity. Whether data comes from peer-to-peer networks, a CAN bus, or from a highly diverse set of media, flash, sensors or RFID, devices have to manage all this data in a highly optimized fashion to deliver what end users want—a great and reliable experience. This month's articles focus on ways to reduce complexity, optimize software performance, and comply with emerging software certifications and standards. We hope they help you break the software bottleneck and deliver a great digital experience.
