Embedded Software Programming and Implementation Guidelines

Mark Kraeling

This chapter provides some guidelines that are commonly used in embedded software development. It starts with principles of programming, including readability, testability, and maintainability. The chapter then proceeds with discussing how to start an embedded software project, including considerations for hardware, file organization, and development guidelines. The focus then shifts to programming guidelines that are important to any software development project, which includes the importance of a syntax coding standard. The chapter concludes with descriptions of variables and definitions and how they are typically used in an embedded software project.
