timing-critical

A daunting task otherwise, Percepio’s Tracealyzer and Detect are changing the game of debugging embedded systems with real-time observability and faster fault resolution. Speaking to Johan Kraft and Andreas Lifvendahl, EFY’s Nidhi Agarwal explores how these tools are transforming development workflows. The hardest parts are timing-critical embedded systems, where adding instrumentation or software tracing introduces unacceptable overhead. It becomes even more challenging in heterogeneous systems built from third-party components, where we do not have full access to source code or internal behavior.
