This is a book about the development of dependable, embedded software. It is for systems designers, implementers, and verifiers who are experienced in general embedded software development, but who are now facing the prospect of delivering a software-based system for a safety-critical application. It is aimed at those creating a product that must satisfy one or more of the international standards relating to safety-critical applications, including IEC 61508, ISO 26262, EN 50128, EN 50657, IEC 62304, or related standards.Of the first edition, Stephen Thomas, PE, Founder and Editor of FunctionalSafetyEngineer.com said, I highly recommend Mr. Hobbs' book.

In today's increasingly interconnected and automated world, the development of safe and reliable embedded software systems is of paramount importance. "Embedded Software Development for Safety-Critical Systems, Second Edition" by Chris Hobbs provides a comprehensive and practical guide to the challenges and best practices involved in building such systems.

This updated and expanded edition covers the entire lifecycle of embedded software development, from requirements gathering and risk assessment to design, implementation, verification, and deployment. It delves into the various standards and regulations that govern safety-critical systems, including IEC 61508, ISO 26262, and DO-178B/C.

With a focus on real-world applications, the book presents numerous case studies and examples, covering a wide range of industries, including automotive, aerospace, medical devices, and industrial automation. These case studies illustrate the practical application of safety-critical software development principles and provide valuable insights into the challenges and solutions encountered in the field.
