Development of embedded and system software, which is operating on new hardware platforms, begins at the stage when there is a number of such hardware platforms known as prototypes which are fragile and expensive. When the development team is located far away, shipping of the hardware (or relocation of developers) is impractical due to price and time issues. The only reasonable solution under these circumstances is arranging a remote access to hardware. While the idea of firmware development for the platform that you can’t hold or even see, seems to be counterintuitive at first, eventually it can be considered as feasible and even convenient.
In the presentation the following topics are discussed based on the experience gained in the number of completed projects:
- Advantages of remote development platforms use.
- Methods of remote development access.
- Technical issues arising from embedded and system software development with use of remotely accessible platforms. Approaches.
