2. Embedded software - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embedded_software

   Embedded software is computer software, written to control machines or devices that are not typically thought of as computers, commonly known as embedded systems. It is typically specialized for the particular hardware that it runs on and has time and memory constraints. [1] This term is sometimes used interchangeably with firmware. [2]

3. Firmware - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firmware

   Firmware hacks usually take advantage of the firmware update facility on many devices to install or run themselves. Some, however, must resort to exploits to run, because the manufacturer has attempted to lock the hardware to stop it from running unlicensed code. Most firmware hacks are free software.

4. Embedded system - Wikipedia

7. Over-the-air update - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Over-the-air_update

   An over-the-air update (or OTA update), also known as over-the-air programming (or OTA programming), [1] is an update to an embedded system that is delivered through a wireless network, such as Wi-Fi or a cellular network. [2] [3] [4] These embedded systems include mobile phones, tablets, set-top boxes, cars and telecommunications equipment.

8. Hardware architect - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_architect

   The engineered system represents the engineering solutions—how the engineer proposes to develop and/or select and combine the components of the technical infrastructure to support the CHI. In the absence of an architect, there is an unfortunate tendency to confuse the two architectures, since the engineer thinks in terms of hardware, but the ...

9. Common Firmware Environment - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Firmware_Environment

   Common Firmware Environment (CFE), sometimes pronounced as 'cafe', [1] is a firmware interface and bootloader developed by Broadcom for 32-bit and 64-bit system-on-a-chip systems. It is intended to be a flexible toolkit of CPU initialization and bootstrap code for use on embedded processors (typically running on MIPS32/64 instruction set CPUs ...
