Embedded systems are self-contained programs that are embedded within a piece of hardware. We can say it’s a specialized computer system that is part of a larger system or machine. Typically, an embedded system is housed on a single microprocessor board with the programs stored in ROM. Embedded system can also be defined as a computer system that is created with optimal efficiency, thereby allowing it to complete specific functions as quickly as possible. Embedded systems microprocessors are programmed to automate certain tasks. Cell phones, computers, copiers, medical equipment, programmable logic controllers, and numerous other products rely on embedded systems. Real time embedded systems can be used to replace traditional software applications.

Embedded systems are used in any application or which requires certain level of automation or intelligence. As more and more intelligent devices make their way into our lives, the demand for embedded telecom will increase. In addition, even in areas where telecom companies are in the grips of a slowdown, companies are not making cuts in introducing new features.

The range is really very wide, limited only by human imagination,” B J Ram Rao, CEO, eSmartNet (a division of Zicom Electronic Security Systems) admitted in a recent interview with Zee India. “I would think that, broadly, the embedded system application areas would be wireless, Internet and mobile communications, industrial control, test and measurement, networking, aerospace and automotive control, consumer electronics, digital imaging and defence.”
