Focusing on embedded systems, this textbook offers a thorough introduction to their fundamental principles, with specific applications in cyber-physical systems and the Internet of Things. It covers specification models, hardware devices, and system software essentials, including real-time operating systems. The author addresses evaluation, validation, and optimization techniques necessary for operating under strict constraints. The updated fourth edition reflects contemporary trends such as the shift to multi-core processors and emphasizes energy efficiency and thermal management.

The book introduces a groundbreaking approach that integrates Worst-Case Execution Time (WCET) considerations into the code generation process. It outlines a reconciliation between compilers and timing analyzers, presenting a variety of innovative optimization techniques. This comprehensive integration aims to enhance the efficiency and reliability of code generation, making it a valuable resource for developers and researchers focused on performance optimization in software engineering.
