  1. Embedded Web Technology Robert Brooks Neal Burry Imelda LeVesconte

  2. Overview • Definition • Brief Overview • Creating applications for embedded systems • Examples of EWT • Conclusion

  3. What is Embedded Web Technology? • “A spider with a PDA”, Ian Macleod, 2000 • “EWT is the application of software developed for the WWW to embedded systems.” • Tempest

  4. Basic Hardware Example

  5. Creating applications for embedded systems: • Things to keep in mind: • An Embedded system’s memory and resources are limited. • Not all embedded systems are versatile. • Versatile Vs Non-versatile devices. • An example of a versatile embedded system “a more efficient device”.

  6. Creating embedded web applications: • Finding a solution: • What language to use? • Micro-code • Assembler • C and C++ • Java etc.. • Java originally created with embedded applications in mind.

  7. Creating embedded web applications cont’d: • Which environment to use? • Any text editor will work along with appropriate compiler. • Tedious but learn the code! • Interactive Development Environment • Such as Borland C++ and MS Visual Studio… • Facilitates coding, organizing, compiling, and debugging applications with menus, buttons, icons, scroll bars etc…

  8. Graphical User interfaces (GUI’s) and web applications: • GUI’s are important to embedded applications: • Provide an attractive and easy to use interface between humans and machines. • Ex: Microsoft’s windows CE for the palm pilot. • No GUI’s? • Dos Vs Microsoft Windows!

  9. Graphical User interfaces (GUI’s) and web applications cont’d: • GUI draw backs: • Can be quite large and bring lots of overhead. • Use what’s already the standard (browsers). • Java applet and the internet. • Browsers once static, now dynamic window to the internet!

  10. Examples of EWT

  11. Examples cont’d • NASA • RoomCam • Wind tunnel

  12. Conclusion • EWT is vastly becoming an important tool in our daily lives.
