The widespread use of embedded systems mandates the development of industrial software design methods, i.e. computer-aided design and engineering of embedded applications using formal models (frameworks) and standardized prefabricated components, much in the same way as in other mature areas of engineering such as mechanical engineering and electronics. These guidelines have been used to develop Component-based Design of Software for Embedded Systems (COMDES). The paper gives an overview of the COMDES framework, followed by a presentation of a generic component types, such as function blocks, activities and function units. The execution of function units is discussed in the context of a newly developed execution model, i.e. timed-multitasking, which has been extended to distributed embedded systems.
A UML Documentation for an Elevator System：This paper is a PhD project report for the course Distributed Embedded Systems at Carnegie Mellon University. Throughout this course, a distributed real-time system – an elevator control system– is specified, designed, built, and simulated. Object Oriented Analysis and Design methods, in specific the Unified Modeling Language (UML) are used when designing the system.
ucos2 is a file system for embedded applications which can be used on any media, for which you can provide basic hardware access functions. µ C/FS is a high performance library that has been optimized for minimum memory consumption in RAM and ROM, high speed and versatility. It is written in ANSI C and can be used on any CPU.

* Textual Languages such as VHDL and Verilog
Learn about the design tradeoffs involved in creating Windows CE .NET operating system (OS) solutions for hardware that implements one of many nonvolatile storage technologies. Different storage technologies, such as NAND and NOR flash memory, masked ROM, and electromechanical Advanced Technology Attachment (ATA) or Integrated Drive Electronics (IDE) storage, impose design constraints and create opportunities for the software environment.
