  2. Embedded system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embedded_system

    An embedded system on a plug-in card with processor, memory, power supply, and external interfaces. An embedded system is a specialized computer system—a combination of a computer processor, computer memory, and input/output peripheral devices—that has a dedicated function within a larger mechanical or electronic system.

  3. 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]

  4. Embedded database - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embedded_database

    By eliminating the MySQL server overhead, InnoDB has a small footprint and is well-suited for embedding in applications which require high-performance and concurrency. As with most embedded database systems, HailDB is designed to be accessed primarily with an ISAM-like C API rather than SQL (though an extremely rudimentary SQL variant is ...

  5. Computer architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_architecture

    The first documented computer architecture was in the correspondence between Charles Babbage and Ada Lovelace, describing the analytical engine.While building the computer Z1 in 1936, Konrad Zuse described in two patent applications for his future projects that machine instructions could be stored in the same storage used for data, i.e., the stored-program concept.

  6. Comparison of instruction set architectures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_instruction...

    An instruction set architecture (ISA) is an abstract model of a computer, also referred to as computer architecture.A realization of an ISA is called an implementation.An ISA permits multiple implementations that may vary in performance, physical size, and monetary cost (among other things); because the ISA serves as the interface between software and hardware.

  8. PDF - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PDF

    PDF files may be digitally signed, to provide secure authentication; complete details on implementing digital signatures in PDF are provided in ISO 32000-2. PDF files may also contain embedded DRM restrictions that provide further controls that limit copying, editing, or printing. These restrictions depend on the reader software to obey them ...

  9. Embedded intelligence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embedded_intelligence

    Embedded intelligence aims to deliver smarter products, systems and services to industry through their integration and purposeful use for particular applications. It can be realized by: Construction, where integrated assemblies use a fusion of technologies—for example, semiconductor integrated circuits and “More than Moore ” [ 1 ] systems ...
