{"product_id":"9780321617125","title":"Real-Time Agility: The Harmony\/ESW Method for Real-Time and Embedded Systems Development","description":"\u003cp\u003eReal-time and embedded systems face the same development challenges as traditional software: shrinking budgets and shorter timeframes. However, these systems can be even more difficult to successfully develop due to additional requirements for timeliness, safety, reliability, minimal resource use, and, in some cases, the need to support rigorous industry standards.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eIn \u003cb\u003e \u003ci\u003e \u003cb\u003eReal-Time Agility,\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e leading embedded-systems consultant Bruce Powel Douglass reveals how to leverage the best practices of agile development to address all these challenges.
