Abstract :
As embedded devices become increasingly complex, time and quality pressures have become one of the greatest challenges facing device software organizations. Although no solution will banish all of a software engineer´s problems, hard ware trace offers a valuable tool that can help solve many of them. Whether the challenges consist of intermittent bugs or serious performance problems, hardware trace offers unique visibility into the workings of software that lets developers deliver better products in less time and with less risk.
