Model-Based Engineering of Embedded Real-Time Systems: This volume describes novel and state-of-the-art approaches to solving problems arising in the domain of embedded real-time systems. It is based on the GI-Dagstuhl research seminar MBEERTS (Modelling-Based Engineering of Embedded Real-Time Systems), which took place from November 4th to 9th in 2007, at Schloss Dagstuhl, Germany. Using models throughout the development bears several advantages. Not only can they be used as a tool for abstraction but also for verification, implementation, testing and maintenance. Due to the specific domain of real-time systems several constraints like real-time
requirements, resource limitations or hardware-specific dependencies arise and impede the acceptance of high-level models for the aforementioned purposes. The approaches presented in this volume tackle those problems and lead the way to a greater acceptance and applicability of high-level models for embedded real-time systems.

"Multi-Core Embedded Systems": Increasingly demanding modern applications�such as those used in telecommunications networking and real-time processing of audio, video, and multimedia streams�require multiple processors to achieve computational performance at the rate of a few giga-operations per second. This necessity for speed and manageable power consumption makes it likely that the next generation of embedded processing systems will include hundreds of cores, while being increasingly programmable, blending processors and configurable hardware in a power-efficient manner.

Test Driven Development for Embedded C: TDD is a modern programming practice C developers need to know. It�s a different way to program�unit tests are written in a tight feedback loop with the production code, assuring your code does what you think. You get valuable feedback every few minutes. You find mistakes before they become bugs. You get early warning of design problems. You get immediate notification of side effect defects. You get to spend more time adding valuable features to your product.
