Lectures on Embedded Systems: European Educational Forum School on Embedded Systems, Veldhoven, The Netherlands, November 25-29, 1996

By Édouard Goursat

Book Overview

This volume originates from the School on Embedded Systems held in Veldhoven, The Netherlands, in November 1996 as the first event organized by the European Educational Forum. Besides thoroughly reviewed and revised chapters based on lectures given during the school, additional papers have been solicited for inclusion in the present book in order to complete coverage of the relevant topics. The authors adress professionals involved in the design and management of embedded systems in industry as well as researchers and students interested in a competent survey. The book will convince the reader that many architectural and algorithmic problems in the area of embedded systems have well documented optimal or correct solutions, notably in the fields of real-time computing, distributed computing, and fault-tolerant computing.

Excellent Introduction to embedded TCP/IP

This book is an excellent introduction to TCP/IP on embedded systems and webservers. The author is very clear and divided the book in a very smart way. The last few chapters which talk about the low level codes are excellent. This book will be one day recogized as the ultimate reference of embedded TCP/IP.

Ideal for anyone who must understand the internals of TCP/IP

I would highly recommend this book to anyone who needs to implement a complete embedded webserver, but has no prior knowledge of ethernet, ip, tcp, or http. There are a few good state diagram pictures, and snippits of C source to walk through every state. It goes above and beyond a raw technical RFC explaination and mentions features and techniques common in other implementions. This book does not cover HTTP as completely...

This is an exciting book!

I have had this book for two days, and it is a pleasure to have working, compilable source code! The writing style is very clear, without being too terse, like so many technical books. It assumes that the reader has a certain degree of sophistication; The author knows his target audience well! This book may end up being one of those programmer's gems like W.R. Steven's APUE and TCP/IP Illustrated... series of books...

TCP/IP for Embedded Systems with Invaluable Sample Code

This is an invaluable text for anyone wishing to implement TCP/IP in an embedded system and would also be ideal as an undergraduate text for the practical aspects of Computer Networks & Communications. The first chapter gives a brief overview of networking hardware and software, SLIP over RS232 and Ethernet protocols, device drivers and timing as well as state machines and buffering considerations. The second chapter discusses...
