Now that the Android operating system has achieved widespread deployment in smartphones and tablets, the benefits are starting to look a lot more attractive for embedded devices of all kinds. The open development environment, the built-in features, the rapidly expanding Android Marketplace, and the overall coolness of the brand make the platform a tempting option for product teams.

Real-time connectivity is critical in the development of new medical devices. From integrating internal monitoring systems, to delivering real-time analysis and correlation of patient data to reducing patient errors -- application developers for both med devices and patient monitoring systems are faced with these new challenges.

As market requirements evolve theres a growing need to move to advanced multicore microprocessors. There are many factors to consider when migrating to multicore including OS/RTOS, SMP or AMP modes, tool chains, and debug.
