Engineers' Talk: HW- and SW-Integrator Jurgen Salm - MES025
It's an ever lasting story in Embedded Systems: Integrate hardware and software. You need to combine a new piece of hardware together with new software. That's the time you need engineers like my today's guest - J\xfcrgen Salm.\n\nJ\xfcrgen has a proven track of experience as SW-developer. He's running his own zoo of Unix- and Linux-machines at his home-place. At work however he's engaged as SW-tester and mainly HW- and SW-integrator. J\xfcrgen is working for one of the big mobile equipment manufacturers in Germany.\n\nJ\xfcrgen is a constant source of ideas about improvement and he has tons of experience you can participate from. As a former SW-developer J\xfcrgen instantly provides the feedback the author of software will understand. More over he does regularly not only provide feedback about the failure, but also directly points to the failing component. Very often I have experienced by myself that he's already pointing to the wrong algorithm directly.\n\nWe're highlighting the daily problems when integrating immature hardware with even more immature software. The challenges when working together with multi-sited SW-development teams. And of course the mother of all questions: How to improve collaboration between developers and integrators.\n\nStay with me and enjoy the interview.
