By standardizing the C interface it is possible to program embedded processors with their ever increasing complex functionality using a high level language, thereby increasing portability and stability of the programs.</p> <p><strong>Previous Revisions/Versions</strong> Embedded C is largely based on DSP-C, an industry standard defined by ACE and Philips.</p> <p><strong>Standardisation Body</strong> ISO (International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) through their common <a href="http://www.open-std.org/JTC1/SC22/WG14" class='spip_out' rel='external'>working group ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 22/WG 14</a>.</p> <p><strong>Main Leader or Contact Person within the Standardisation Body</strong> Willem Wakker (ACE), member of WG14 and project editor of TR 18037.</p> <p><strong>Industrial Domains</strong> Embedded System in general.</p> <p><strong>Industrial Gains</strong> The use of the specification allows the development and implementation of complex embedded software systems and algorithms in a portable, processor independent fashion. These result in gains for Performance and Ease of Engineering.</p> <p><strong>Main other non-ARTIST participants</strong> See <a href="http://www.embedded-c.org/" class='spip_out' rel='external'>here</a>.</p></div>
