About The Book
Real-Time Embedded Systems: Optimization, Synthesis, and Networking by Jiayin Li offers a comprehensive exploration of embedded systems, which are ubiquitous in modern consumer products. These systems, powered by microprocessors, are designed to perform specific tasks and are integral to our daily lives. This book provides engineers with a systems-level understanding of embedded systems, focusing on the critical areas of optimization, synthesis, and networking.

The text is divided into three main sections. The first section addresses optimization in real-time embedded systems, including scheduling algorithms for multi-core systems, strategies for handling inaccurate information, and issues related to heterogeneous optimization. The second section focuses on synthesis-level approaches, exploring scheduling algorithms for phase change memory and scratch pad memory, as well as thermal-aware multiprocessor synthesis. The final section delves into networking, particularly task scheduling in wireless sensor networks and cloud computing. It also discusses the evolution of cyber-physical systems (CPS), which combine networking and embedded systems.

Real-Time Embedded Systems encourages readers to understand how computers interact with their environment, making it an essential introduction to the design, manufacturing, and marketing of embedded systems, as well as a look into the future directions of this rapidly evolving field.
