This web seminar provides a detailed look at accelerating the design cycle by utilizing host simulation technology to build, debug, and test complete embedded systems, including a touch screen graphical User Interface (UI), without the need for hardware.
You will see how the interaction with external stimuli can easily be integrated into designs, enabling the look and feel of the final device to be evaluated on a host simulation environment well ahead of having hardware.
The sooner a product can go to market, greater the probability of its success. Unfortunately, embedded software development and design processes are traditionally too dependent on target hardware. This approach can cause severe delays and product failures when embedded software is not implemented, tested and verified properly.
The host simulation development approach enables you to develop your embedded software with simulated hardware. When the target hardware is available for testing and verification, the same software that has been implemented on host simulation is used.
What You Will Learn
- The host simulation development approach and how it reduces the dependency on target hardware
- How to reduce development cycles, spot critical software errors sooner, and release products faster
- Why embedded GUI development is aptly suited for host simulation development environments
- To create an effective, uncomplicated host simulation development environment
