Hi Saurabh

Embedded software is a software system that permanently resides in a device whose operations it controls. Typically, embedded systems are housed on flash memory or ROM chip and may be found in systems like cellular phones, household and office appliances having digital interfaces, medical equipment, automotive components, avionics etc.

Thanks n regards

An embedded system is a special-purpose computer system designed to perform one or a few dedicated functions,[1] often with real-time computing constraints. It is usually embedded as part of a complete device including hardware and mechanical parts. In contrast, a general-purpose computer, such as a personal computer, can do many different tasks depending on programming. Embedded systems control many of the common devices in use today.

Since the embedded system is dedicated to specific tasks, design engineers can optimize it, reducing the size and cost of the product, or increasing the reliability and performance. Some embedded systems are mass-produced, benefiting from economies of scale.

Embedded software systems,which engage the physical world. Time, concurrency, liveness, robustness, continuums, reactivity, and resource management must be remarried to computation.

Embedded software is used to control electronic products not normally identified as computers. Embedded software usually executes on an internal micro-controller or a Digital Signal Processor (DSP) used to control other product components. Typically, such software must be extremely reliable, very efficient and compact, and precise in its handling of the rapid and unpredictable timing of inputs and outputs. Products that contain embedded software include cellular telephone handsets & base-stations, portable MP3 players, television set-top boxes, data network switching equipment, automobiles, modems and hard disk drives, high efficiency electric motors, and digital cameras.

well, Instructions that permanently reside in a ROM or flash memory chip. Embedded software may be immediately available to the CPU or, for faster execution, may be transferred to RAM first and then executed. Contrast with regular software applications, which are stored on disk and must be loaded into RAM for execution.

Embedded system is any electronic system that uses a CPU chip, but that is not a general-purpose workstation, desktop or laptop computer. Such systems generally use microprocessors, or they may use custom-designed chips or both. They are used in automobiles, planes, trains, space vehicles, machine tools, cameras, consumer electronics, office appliances, cellphones, PDAs and other handhelds as well as robots and toys. The uses are endless, and billions of microprocessors are shipped every year for a myriad of applications.
