Thought Leadership

Embedded World, Nuremberg is next week!

Next week, Tuesday-Thursday, is what I believe to be the biggest event dedicated to embedded system development on the planet: Embedded World. It is a massive show. The exhibition includes just about anything remotely connected with embedded design. It is so large that there is a shuttle bus to take you from one side of the site to the other. Mentor is exhibiting there, of course, and, along with a few colleagues, I will be presenting a number of papers in the conference …

Mentor’s booth is in Hall 4 – booth #4643. There will be lots going on. You can see full details here.

The conference at Embedded World has numerous tracks and is carefully managed to avoid to many sales pitches. I have spoken here most years and the sessions are usually very well attended. This year I have four papers:

  • C – The Language of Embedded – Tuesday 09:30-10:00
  • Dynamic Memory Allocation & Fragmentation in C & C++ – Thursday 10:00-10:30
  • Self-testing in Embedded Systems – Thursday 14:30-15:00
  • Writing Reliable Code with MISRA C – Thursday 12:00-12:30

If you are attending Embedded World, do stop by and say hello. If you would like copies of any of my slides, please contact me by email or via social media.
