Overview:

Over the past decade, embedded systems complexity has been growing at an exponential rate in both hardware and software. As organisations are faced with shrinking budgets and a growing number of features that must be supported, teams are desperately seeking new ways to accelerate development. Open source software offers tantalizing hope – but how can teams successfully leverage this in their embedded systems developments?

In this webinar:

We will explore the use of open source software, including the challenges it alleviates and brings. We will explain how to select open source components, how to analyze them for quality and how to successfully integrate them into your code base.

You can expect to learn about:

• Pros and cons for using open source software
• How to evaluate open source software quality
• Integrating open source software into an embedded architecture
• Analyzing and testing open source software

This webinar will demonstrate open source techniques with FreeRTOS using Renesas’ RA microcontroller platform.
