Electrical Engineers, Computer Scientists and the Science of Selecting Microcontrollers
Selecting the right microcontroller for a product can be difficult into toDay's development environment. In this session, we'll explore how to select a microcontroller using the perspectives of both electrical and software engineers. Attendees will walk away with an understanding of critical concepts that are required when starting to develop embedded software.

The Tools of the Trade
Having the right tool for the job is critical in any job but especially so for embedded software developers. In this session, we will explore important tools such as compilers, optimization, programming languages along with analysis tools. Attendees will walk away for an understanding how open source and commercial tools compare in performance, efficiency and cost and which tradeoffs are most appropriate.

Creating an Embedded Workbench
Starting a project right can determine whether it is poised for success or failure. Rarely do development teams start with all the right resources configured in their software project. We will setup an embedded workbench, a baseline project that can be used to develop embedded software. The project will include hooks that should be put into a project, baseline code analysis and metric recommendations, setting up assertions, printf and trace along with the creation of documentation templates.

Software Architecture, HALs and Best Practices
The way that firmware is developed is beginning to change at a rapid rate. Designing a scalable software architecture that ties into a hardware abstraction layer can greatly improve reusability which in turn decreases development costs and time market. In this session, attendees will walk away with tips, trick and best practices for scaling their embedded software workbench to develop reusable embedded software.
