Embedded Hardware/Software Design Marketplace for Developers to Change Dramatically

DUBLIN, Ireland--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/eb6ce6/embedded_hardware) has announced the addition of the "Embedded Hardware/Software Design Preferences" report to their offering.

The embedded marketplace for developers is about to undertake a radical upheaval, driven by economic and technical forces that are unyielding and destined to change the embedded landscape. These changes, though underway, have only begun to appear in the detailed 2007 EMF survey - and then in a subtle manner. One should expect profound changes in COTS availability, new bus architectures, high speed interconnects and design complexities.

Although these changes are initially manifesting in hardware - boards, busses and chips - software developers will also feel the impact as multicore processors and systems-withinsystems opportunities create new demands on their abilities.

Key Topics Covered:

* OVERVIEW
* METHODOLOGY
* PROFILING EMBEDDED DEVELOPER RESPONDENTS
* Design Team......
* Respondent Characteristics - Education
