Embedded DevOps: Hardware in the CI Loop and the Transformative Power of Sharing Work-in-Progress
Status: Coming up in April 2025!It took 36 years for humans to be able to dominate the computer game Tetris and it happened because of a need that forced global sharing of gaming expertise.
Traditionally, embedded software development has been tethered to workstations due to the necessity of interfacing with embedded hardware. However, as technological advancements increasingly liberate embedded developers from desk-bound constraints, the ingrained habit of work-in-progress isolation persists. This deeply rooted practice makes it challenging for teams to benefit from shared wisdom and collaboration.
Collaborative innovation is not possible if work-in-progress is not shared as it is being done. If you reflect on your habits to gain expertise, you might notice that you're doing those searches "while you work". Sharing work-in-progress also allows other sources of expertise to be a part of your expertise searching such as AI and automated testing.
Things you will learn:
- That sharing work-in-progress is foundational to benefiting from collaborating agents.
- Software engineering expertise sharing through code reviews.
- Shared software manufacturing expertise sharing through CI automation.
- Automated sharing of costly physical hardware resources.
- A culture of continuous wisdom transfer grows internal talent.
This session is about breaking free from the inertia of isolated practices and transforming work-in-progress into a shared, collaborative activity that accelerates innovation.
