Abstract :
[en] Embedded control systems are becoming more and more popular, especially in relatively inexpensive consumer prod- ucts, like home appliances and building automation controllers. As a consequence, there is an ever increasing desire to reduce firmware development time and cost, without hampering relia- bility and performance. In this paper, a low-overhead firmware development framework is proposed, which allows programmers to develop and deploy typical real-time control software faster than using plain C-language programming. At the same time, experimental results confirm the framework’s efficiency and applicability even to low-end microcontrollers.
