Free UML Whitepaper: UML for C
UML has been highly successful in the modeling of software-intensive systems, including systems-oriented models and real-time and embedded designs. The most common implementation of these models has been C++, with the C language in second place. This paper discussed the functional-based modeling strategy.

An ESL Methodology for Functional Verification between Untimed C++ and RTL using SystemC
Many RTL designs are developed from C++ algorithms that have been extensively tested using a C++ testbench. The C++ testbench often represents a huge engineering effort to provide as much coverage of the algorithm as possible. Once the algorithm has been synthesized to RTL, however, a new testbench is typically written instead of using the original C++ testbench. This creates a discontinuity between the verification performed on the...

C++ for Embedded: Dos and Don'ts
It took the arrival of very high quality code generation and transparent debugging for the industry to accept such new-fangled ideas, and that was only under the relentless pressure to become more productive. The obvious step on from C is C++. Even though its use for embedded software has steadily increased in recent years, it is far from universal. Why is that?

C++ Target Testing
This paper considers the evolution of target testing over the last decade, evaluating the host/ target testing divide, and examining current trends. Well-defined, lightweight language subsets such as embedded C++ have emerged to optimise target executable size and increase portability in embedded applications.

Object Oriented Programming in C
Embedded software development is slowly moving towards object oriented analysis, design and programming. The introduction of object oriented technologies in some systems has not happened due to lack of C++ support on some platforms.
