At Embedded Live 2010 I shall be presenting a half-day tutorial entitled “EMBEDDED PROGRAMMERS’ GUIDE TO THE ARM CORTEX-M ARCHITECTURE”.
Feabhas have been training embedded software engineers in languages and architectures for the last 15 years. For the last decade we have been using ARM based target systems for all our programming based courses (C, C++ and testing – ARM7TDMI) and embedded Linux courses (ARM926). However with the development and release of the new generation Cortex micros we are moving our […]

This the headline to the central story in today’s New York Times. The story is about the overuse of PowerPoint by the US military, especially in Afghanistan. It centers around a particular PowerPoint slide (shown below) attempting to portray the complexity of US strategy in the region.
The article discusses that a Brig. Gen. H. R. McMaster banned PowerPoint presentations when he led the successful effort to secure the northern Iraq city of Tal Afar.
Leading on from this, […]

As I’m sure you’re well aware, the ash cloud from the Eyjafjallajokull volcano (which began erupting in mid-March) pretty much brought much of European airspace to a standstill over last weekend and into this week. Now that UK airspace has been reopened, it appears I can resume plans for my visit to the Embedded Systems Conference in San Jose next week.
The sessions I’m directly involved with are:
Examining ARM’s Cortex Microcontroller Software Interface Standard – CMSIS

Over many years of delivering technical training to the embedded systems sector, two questions have always bothered me:
Why, when the economy gets difficult, are training budgets one of the first things to get cut?
Why do delegates, who have waited months (sometimes years) to attend training, get pulled off mid-course?
Even though a myriad of articles tell us why businesses should invest in training during an economical downturn (Why Invest in Training During an Economical Downturn?) funding for training is very hard […]
