Summary
While Embedded Internetworking has tremendous growth potential, because there are so many diverse industries involved in the development of Embedded Internetworking solutions, it is unlikely that we will see a dominant standard for Embedded Internetworking solutions any time soon. As a result, it is difficult to predict what the technology's usage will be in the future, but implementing commercially available software and protocol stacks now, will not only help to reduce development time and speed integration of the involved network technology now, but also can provide designers with added flexibility to grow and change dynamically as the technology evolves.
Olaf Pfeiffer is one of the founders of the Embedded Systems Academy. He studied technical computer science at the Co-Operative University in Karlsruhe, Germany. His dissertation about embedded networking with field busses won the award of best dissertation of the year. He continuously conducts training classes and publishes articles and on-line documents about different microcontroller architectures, embedded networking with CAN and CANopen and Embedded Internetworking. A free on-line training class on Embedded Internetworking and other related topics are available from the web pages of the Embedded Systems Academy at www.esacademy.com
John Rodrigues is V.P. of sales & marketing for CMX Systems, Inc., of Framingham, MA. CMX has been providing real time operating systems and TCP/IP stacks for most 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit processors and DSP's since 1990. Its unique TCP/IP stack, CMX-MicroNet, is specifically designed for 8-bit processors and those 16-bit applications that require a single chip solution.
