Simulation-based Design Improves Hybrid Vehicle Reliability
Check out the simulation-based design for hybrid vehicles article by Michael Jensen of Synopsys:
Combining technologies in a standard vehicle, where electronic and software control is used in non-drive source applications, is a complicated design challenge. A hybrid vehicle has this same design challenge of integrating non-drive automotive electronics source systems, with the added complexity of […]
Developing Software for Iridium Satellite
I forgot to plug the Iridium Satellite article on Embedded Star yesterday.
Iridium Satellite acquired 66 cross-linked, low-orbit satellites from a bankrupt satellite phone company (also named Iridium) in 2000. However, Iridium Satellite did not receive all of the basic hardware that were used to develop and construct the flight software that operated the satellites. Over […]
