I am asked quite often what the best resources are for staying up to date and learning more about embedded software design. There are many ways a developer can stay up to date and learn such as
- Technical Blogs, Websites and Periodicals
- Online communities, video and webinars
- Books
- Training Courses
- Conferences
In time, I may publish a comprehensive resource list that I find to be useful but for today, I want to provide you with the top 10 books I’ve found to be most useful through-out my career so far. Also if you have any that you have found to be wonderful please send them to me at jacob@beningo.com and I will check them out and add them to a larger list.
