2 Engineers Guide to Embedded Linux and Android 2012
Welcome to the Engineers
Guide to Embedded Linux
and Android 2012
Linux in its many iterations including Android
continues to make headway in embedded designs.
In fact, growth is expected to maintain double-
digit increases through 2013, according to VDC
Research. This issue is chock-full of information to
help you keep up.
In Yocto Project Big in Embedded Linux, The Linux
Foundation explains the advantages of Linux and the Yocto
open collaboration that provides tools and infrastructure
to help create custom Linux-based systems for embedded
products regardless of the hardware architecture.Throughout
this issue, key vendors provide detailed insight into some
of the most important considerations for embedded Linux
designs, including multicore development, accessory design,
and device security. See the Mentor Graphics article How
Do You Eat a Multicore Elephant?; Microchips Utilizing
Googles New Open Accessory Framework for Android Acces-
sory Designs; and Wind Rivers Is Device Security a Major
Challenge for Open Source Sof tware? We also look at some
interesting trends in modeling open source design in a discus-
sion with Embedded Market Forecasters Jerry Krasner. And
our roundtable discussion covers development challenges and
opportunities, security and the ups and downs of Android in
embedded applications. Of course, youll also find lots more
information in these pages on the products and services you
need to succeed in your embedded Android and Linux applica-
tions.
We hope you enjoy this EE Catalog Resource Guide. As always,
wed love to hear your feedback, thoughts and comments.
