Computer engineering and embedded systems are about developing both hardware and software to work together for controlling specific dedicated devices. These devices, such as a traffic light controller, usually are dedicated in doing one common thing, are capable of interacting with the “real world,” and have real-time constraints. Computer and embedded systems engineers need to work with the underlying hardware logic circuit, interface microprocessors and controllers with external sensors and I/Os, and to program at the machine level.
