They have adopted practices based on iterative and incremental development, where requirements and solutions evolve through collaboration between self-organizing, cross-functional teams. More traditional, non-Agile approaches to software development typically rely on a more regimented and tightly managed style of waterfall development, where projects can suffer from a multitude of reports, checkpoints, and overhead; moreover, testing and integration are regarded as a late stage activities, so problems are frequently discovered too late for projects to be delivered on schedule. Although popularized by teams developing IT systems, Agile practices can apply equally well to systems development projects, such as small, microelectronic products and devices. Known as embedded software development, this discipline differs from IT application development primarily in the limited availability of deployment target resources like processor performance and memory, not to mention the need to often perform complex real-time operations. (Think of a computer-controlled system of airbags in your car; you want them to deploy the microsecond they are needed, not half a second later). But can Agile methods support such a demanding level of precision? For many ...This distinction fades, however, when Agility is applied under the auspices of a structured approach to systems engineering and extended with Continuous Integration methods. In this webinar you will learn: How CI can be employed in the context of embedded software development, how the efficiencies CI provides can improve a business’s bottom line.   Presenter: Martin Bakal Marty has over a decade of experience working in various capacity's in the embedded systems and software industry with extensive customer experience worldwide in multiple industries including consumer, telecomm, medical device and automotive.
