To develop a simulation of a complex dynamic system, you must first develop mathematical models of major system components, as well as of any significant interactions between the system and its operational environment. Here's an introduction to the development of mathematical models of dynamic systems.

Of late, the government has been doing some things for technologists. But maybe were doing ourselves a disservice by overspecializing

Despite being a quarter-century old, the 8 bit Z80 and its derivatives continue to be popular with embedded system designers. With two new derivatives emerging within the last year, its a good time to take a fresh look at the architecture. This article considers the architectural choices from the perspective of an RTOS implementer or user.
