Embedded systems are computer systems designed to perform specific tasks, often with real-time constraints. They are found in many devices like appliances, vehicles, and industrial equipment. Unlike general-purpose computers, embedded systems typically have very specific inputs, outputs, and purposes. They also have limited resources and cannot be easily updated with software patches if issues arise. Despite these challenges, embedded systems are widely used due to their cost-effectiveness and ability to control physical systems. The embedded systems industry continues to grow rapidly as more devices incorporate computer technology.

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

1. Introduction :
Embedded Technology is now in its prime and the wealth of knowledge available is
mindblowing. However, most embedded systems engineers have a common complaint. There are
no comprehensive resources available over the internet which deal with the various design and
implementation issues of this technology. Intellectual property regulations of many corporations
are partly to blame for this and also the tendency to keep technical know-how within a restricted
group of researchers.
Before embarking on the rest of this book, it is important first to cover exactly what embedded
systems are, and how they are used. This wikibook will attempt to cover a large number of
topics, some of which apply only to embedded systems, but some of which will apply to nearly
all computers (embedded or otherwise). As such, there is a chance that some of the material from
this book will overlap with material from other wikibooks that are focused on topics such as low-
level computing, assembly language, computer architecture, etc.
What Is Embedded System?
The first question that needs to be asked, is "What exactly is an embedded computer?" To be fair,
however, it is much easier to answer the question of what an embedded computer is not, than to
try and describe all the many things that an embedded computer can be. An embedded computer
is frequently a computer that is implemented for a particular purpose. In contrast, an average PC
computer usually serves a number of purposes: checking email, surfing the internet, listening to
music, word processing, etc... However, embedded systems usually only have a single task, or a
very small number of related tasks that they are programmed to perform.
Every home has several examples of embedded computers. Any appliance that has a digital
clock, for instance, has a small embedded microcontroller that performs no other task than to
display the clock. Modern cars have embedded computers onboard that control such things as
ignition timing and anti-lock brakes using input from a number of different sensors.
Embedded computers rarely have a generic interface, however. Even if embedded systems have
a keypad and an LCD display, they are rarely capable of using many different types of input or
output. An example of an embedded system with I/O capability is a security alarm with an LCD
status display, and a keypad for entering a password.
In general, an Embedded System: It is a combination of hardware and software to performs a
specific task.
Is a system built to perform its duty, completely or partially independent of human
intervention.
Is specially designed to perform a few tasks in the most efficient way.
2. Interacts with physical elements in our environment, viz. controlling and driving a motor,
sensing temperature, etc.
An embedded system can be defined as a control system or computer system designed to
perform a specific task. Common examples of embedded systems include MP3 players,
navigation systems on aircraft and intruder alarm systems. An embedded system can also be
defined as a single purpose computer.
Most embedded systems are time critical applications meaning that the embedded system is
working in an environment where timing is very important: the results of an operation are only
relevant if they take place in a specific time frame. An autopilot in an aircraft is a time critical
embedded system. If the autopilot detects that the plane for some reason is going into a stall then
it should take steps to correct this within milliseconds or there would be catastrophic results.
What are Embedded System Used For?
The uses of embedded systems are virtually limitless, because every day new products are
introduced to the market that utilize embedded computers in novel ways. In recent years,
hardware such as microprocessors, microcontrollers, and FPGA chips have become much
cheaper. So when implementing a new form of control, it's wiser to just buy the generic chip and
write your own custom software for it. Producing a custom-made chip to handle a particular task
or set of tasks costs far more time and money. Many embedded computers even come with
extensive libraries, so that "writing your own software" becomes a very trivial task indeed.
From an implementation viewpoint, there is a major difference between a computer and an
embedded system. Embedded systems are often required to provide Real-Time response. A
Real-Time system is defined as a system whose correctness depends on the timeliness of its
response. Examples of such systems are flight control systems of an aircraft, sensor systems in
nuclear reactors and power plants. For these systems, delay in response is a fatal error. A more
relaxed version of Real-Time Systems, is the one where timely response with small delays is
acceptable. Example of such a system would be the Scheduling Display System on the railway
platforms. In technical terminology, Real-Time Systems can be class
What are Some Downfalls Of Embedded Computer?
Embedded computers may be economical, but they are often prone to some very specific
problems. A PC computer may ship with a glitch in the software, and once discovered, a
software patch can often be shipped out to fix the problem. An embedded system, however, is
frequently programmed once, and the software cannot be patched. Even if it is possible to patch
faulty software on an embedded system, the process is frequently far too complicated for the
user.
Another problem with embedded computers is that they are often installed in systems for which
unreliability is not an option. For instance, the computer controlling the brakes in your car cannot
be allowed to fail under any condition. The targeting computer in a missile is not allowed to fail
3. and accidentally target friendly units. As such, many of the programming techniques used when
throwing together production software cannot be used in embedded systems. Reliability must be
guaranteed before the chip leaves the factory. This means that every embedded system needs to
be tested and analyzed extensively.
An embedded system will have very few resources when compared to full blown computing
systems like a desktop computer, the memory capacity and processing power in an embedded
system is limited. It is more challenging to develop an embedded system when compared to
developing an application for a desktop system as we are developing a program for a very
constricted environment. Some embedded systems run a scaled down version of operating
system called an RTOS (real time operating system).
Why Embedded System?
Embedded systems are playing important roles in our lives every day, even though they might not
necessarily be visible. Some of the embedded systems we use every day control the menu system on
television, the timer in a microwave oven, a cellphone, an MP3 player or any other device with some
amount of intelligence built-in. In fact, recent poll data shows that embedded computer systems
currently outnumber humans in the USA. Embedded systems is a rapidly growing industry where growth
opportunities are numerous.
