Advanced Debugging and Performance Analysis Techniques for Embedded Applications

Packed with live demos, this session introduces you to advanced debugging and performance analysis techniques for your embedded system. See how Streaming Instruction Tracing lets you capture what your embedded system really executes, in a non-intrusive way. Learn about measuring the execution time and frequency of functions, blocks, and instructions using Code Profiling, making it easier to discover optimization potential. Discover how Code Coverage lets you measure the execution of code, detect unreachable code, and code not covered by tests, allowing for fast, efficient code improvement. Find out how you can do real-time recording and visualization of your embedded application, revealing its true runtime behavior. Going far deeper than the system insights provided by debuggers, this is especially useful when developing and working with complex embedded systems comprising of multiple threads and interrupts. Once you know about these advanced techniques and the tools behind them, you’ll never want to go back to basic debugging!
