Development of Software in Embedded Systems Part-1
[/b]Development of Software in Embedded Systems Part -1[/b]



Whether one is creating an operating system, firmware or even device drivers the way on writes software can affect the power consumption of the resulting product. We need to strike that equilibrium between quality and effectiveness. To do so, we optimize our software's performance so that it can run on slower, less-expensive processors. We trim our software's memory footprint so we can use smaller, less-expensive memories. And progressively more, writing software for handheld and wireless devices, we optimize our software's power consumption to extend the life of small, cheap power sources. The good news is that-whether we develop the operating system, secondary drivers, or application firmware-a variety of software design techniques can reduce power consumption.
