Study Notes

Software Embebido

  • Software embebido es un tipo de aplicación particular en ingeniería de software.
  • Se utiliza en diversas actividades humanas.
  • Su construcción requiere características específicas.
  • El desarrollo presenta retos relacionados con la calidad del producto.
  • La confiabilidad es fundamental.
  • Hay tendencias futuras en la mejora de herramientas de diseño y cobertura de aplicaciones.

Definición de Software Embebido

  • Software embebido reside en memoria ROM.
  • Se usa para controlar productos y sistemas en mercados industriales y de consumo.
  • Puede ejecutar funciones específicas como controlar las teclas de un horno microondas o funciones de control en automóviles.
  • El software interacciona con el mundo físico.
  • No se enfoca en abstracciones como aplicaciones empresariales sino en la interacción con componentes físicos.
  • Se ejecuta en máquinas que no son computadoras (ejemplos: autos, teléfonos, robots, aparatos).

Categorías de Software Embebido

  • Categorías de software: básico, indispensable para el funcionamiento de un aparato, (sistema operativo ad-hoc) y
  • programación en lenguajes como assembler, C/C++ o VHDL).
  • Requiere un elevado esfuerzo inicial y mano de obra especializada.
  • El costo se reparte en la cantidad de equipos producidos.
  • Generalmente no se modifica durante su vida activa, siendo reemplazado con un nuevo modelo.

Ámbitos de Aplicación

  • Aplicaciones con microcontroladores: aparatos electrónicos, sistemas de comunicación, automotores, aparatos militares, dispositivos médicos.
  • Sistemas mecatrónicos: combina sistemas mecánicos y eléctricos, controlados por un sistema embebido.

Retos en el Desarrollo de Software Embebido

  • Particularidades del software que se preocupa por el mundo físico.
  • Necesidad de medir tiempo y responder a eventos o restricciones físicas.
  • La necesidad de respuestas en tiempo real.
  • Requerimientos de clientes que demandan características avanzadas, como reutilización, mantenibilidad y flexibilidad, no siempre prioridad en el desarrollo actual.
  • Cuatro retos principales: planeación, metodología, aseguramiento de la calidad, y herramientas de diseño.

Tendencias en el Desarrollo de Software Embebido

  • Mejora de la relación poder/precio en hardware, permitiendo el uso de hardware de propósito general en lugar de hardware dedicado.
  • Uso de arquitecturas SoCs (System-on-a-Chip) en lugar de circuitos integrados especializados.
  • La portabilidad del software embebido en diferentes dispositivos se simplifica con este cambio.

Características del Software Embebido

  • Confiabilidad, limitaciones en recursos de hardware, y respuesta en tiempo real son atributos clave.
