Implementing the Component-based Software Engineering in Embedded Systems

Abstract-- It is thought that the component-based software engineering can not be used in the embedded systems. This thought is the result of the features of embedded systems. Embedded systems have some unique concerns such as resource constraints, real-time or dependability requirements. These issues make using the component-based software engineering into the embedded systems field more difficult. The aim of this work is to show that it possible to make use of component-based concept in the embedded systems. This paper considers the basic overview of component-based model and general issues about embedded systems. The core issue is providing an example showing that how useful to implement an embedded system using the component-based software engineering. I
